    I went to the web site and even did the "Build your own." I selected 44h and it even showed me a picture of the model ordered and at the end of my order it showed me a Picture of what I had ordered again. No tag axle. I guess they are misleading. I was very surprised myself. I believe you when you say there is a Tag axle, because without it it makes no sense. But since class A's over 40ft are not my thing, I can only report what my research yielded.


    CWSWine is correct. If you look close enough you'll find the 44H does have a 10,000# tag axle. It's in the data sheet. The pictures are generic.
    The link you posted will take you to the PDF with the correct information.

    I just saw this the other day. I was at General RV yesterday ( service work) and confirmed with my salesman. New Discovery model LXE- 44H. New tag ( for Discovery model) and bigger 450 hspwr engine. Seems reasonably priced for a tag entry.

    Hmm, the discovery LXE 44H w/out a tag axle comes with a Cummins 450 hp. too, just FYI, so nothing new there. Also the the Holiday rambler Endeavor and the Fleetwood Discovery LXE both have the 44H design, but the HR is $8K less. So since Fleetwood and HR and Monaco (throw in American Coach too) are owned by the same Big guy, It was a matter of time before they put the 44H on a XCM chassis with a tag wheel, I bet the chassis is the same as the Monaco - A Roadmaster (a modified Frightliner XCM chassis).


    LXE 44H with out a tag? I have never seen a 44' MH with out a tag axle. Could you document that for us please. Provide a link.

    The last time the Discovery had a Tag wheel was in 2012. Since then it's been without. But yeah, the discovery LXE now is 44Ft and no tagwheel, but from what I hear they are bringing it back. But from 2013 to 2018 it was made with out a Tag wheel. (unless you special order it, I guess). The Holiday rambler has the same 44 foot 44H plan (the Endeavor). $8k less than the fleetwood.
    Just go to Fleetwood. com.

    looks good all the bells and whistle's too; 4 tv,fireplace, dish washer, stacking washer+dryer etc well priced compared to newmar and tiffin for sure
    I don't like the 100 gallon fuel tank that's a mistake on fleetwoods part
