Considering a Coachman 3540 DS but can't find any info

Hi. Considering a 2009 Coachmen Freedom Vision 3540 ds. It is a 35' gas class A on a Ford chassis with bunk beds. However, I have not been able to find any info other than a brochure...

Do any of you have any knowledge of this model from Coachmen?

As always I appreciate your opinions and feedback!

    I have to say that I can't see what you are seeing. However, the ad makes mention of new carpet. I wonder if that is a red flag?


    new carpet is no red flag. Carpet is the worst thing they ever installed in a Motorhome.Every DPMH including the one iam in as I type I have ripped out every sq inch and done other flooring venues
    I see no "ceiling problems"

    We had a 2004 Coachmen Mirada ( our first rv ) and the quality was very poor. The Ford chassis was great, but the coach had one problem after the other, 99% of the problems were just poor workmanship.
