After another couple weeks of digging through information, it turns out that most of the coaches we're looking at with CAT engines, probably don't have the C7, but the 3126. We're looking at very few coaches newer than 2004 and it seems that's right around the time the change over from 3126 to C7 occurred. I've not seen as many threads about 3126 problems.

Yes, as I stated earlier, the C-7 was primarily introduced very close to Sept of '03. And, just about all of those produced from that point were labeled as '04 units. As of yet, I have ZERO complaints on our C-7. It's "pushed" us for over 23K miles since we purchased it with 40K on the clock and, we pull a fairly heavy toad too. I surely wouldn't shy away from a nice coach, a great floor plan, great qualities, and fits all your needs and desires, price too, just because it's touting a C-7, based on the limited amount of HEUI complaints.
