Gulfstream Conquest Ultra SE

I have a chance to look at a Gulfstream Conquest Ultra SE 2005 no slides, 23,000 miles. However I just checked and it has a Chevy 8 Cylinder engine? I am not liking that your thoughts. Need an answer so I can drive down this afternoon to look at it. Will have it inspected before I would even think of buying it. I am concerned about the 8 cyclinders.
Class C

    I don't know how big that Gulfstream is, but in the two small Class C's I've had, the Chevy engine has been superb. Very effortless driving in the mountains.

    I'm not sure exactly what your concern is. The Chevy 6.0 V8 is a good engine and provides decent performance in a class C motorhome. It has less torque and towing capacity than the Ford V10 but by most accounts has plenty of power.
