- CockatielladyExplorerThis is not good many looked no one replies?
- zach477ExplorerI have an 08 Fiesta. The Fiesta and the Terra are the same. Just a different name for different markets. It's more on the "entry level" side, but mine had a lot of upgraded options. I think it had a good bang for the buck.
Is it for recreation or are you planning on fulltiming? How many miles does it have? - debraindiExplorerI bough a 2003 dakota 28 ft ultralite. It was very good with less problems then my new Impact. My son has it now and uses some. I lived in mine for 6 months wile my house was being built. A Lot of bang for the buck. I had a 17 ft super slid that never failed with the old rack and gear drive.
- bsinmichExplorerWith any entry level RV you give up some of the nice features of the more expensive ones. With a little less insulation you will notice a little more noise and the AC will not be as effective in the heat. There will be less in the way of window treatments for keeping the light out, floor material will have no padding under the carpet. They save money by eliminating items.
- CockatielladyExplorerNo will not be living in it want it to bring my birds to shows and will use for some weekend trips. I do live in FL so insulation may be needed. Not sure on the miles on it. Plan to see it tomorrow. More will be revealed.
Thanks for the feedback that is what I need - mnoeltneExplorerI tried posting this yesterday, but the forum died while I was writing it.
I have a 2005 Fleetwood Fiesta 26Y (27' actual length). My understanding is that the Fiesta and Terra are essentially the same. The Owners Manual lists both on the cover and don't differentiate inside the manual.
Link to the manual mentioned: http://fleetwoodrv.com/partsandservice/manuals/2005_FIESTA_TERRA.pdf
Sales brochure for the 2005 Terra: http://fleetwoodrv.com/frvlibrary/docs/2005/2005_tra_b.pdf
I don't see a brochure for the Terra with floorplans listed.
Anyway, I am satisfied with our Fiesta. I knew going in that it was an entry level Class A, with all that entails. It is a P-32 chassis, which keeps the price down, but the handling and ride aren't as good as some of the newer designs. It's a bit noisy going down the road, but my wife and I have learned to live with it.
Build quality is not as good as the higher end A's. More like mid-level Class C's. Still, for the price we paid, we got a decent value. I didn't expect Monaco or HR quality.
We've owned ours for 7-1/2 years now and it's done what we've asked of it without any major problems.
If you have specific questions, please ask! - RVMikeExplorerHad a 2004 for 10 years, good bang for the dollar. Handling is so so but I put heavier springs in the front and got rid of the airbags, big diff. Correct tire pressure really affects this RV. If the right rear is sagging have another leaf installed. Kind of miss it
