Help me choose a used A class

I have posted about a couple different older rigs I have looked at. I wanted to start this to get opinions on rigs I am considering.

First up is a 1997 Winnebago Vectra Grand Tour. Garage kept its whole life. 4 year old Michelins. This is a little older than the other I've been considering but seems to be in good condition.

Please give feedback.

    The Bounder looks to have a short WB compared to the overall length. Could be a little squirly but a good test drive will tell. Otherwise it looks good.

    I'm thinking the Rambler is too far away and the Winnebago a littler older than I'd like with the 460 motor.

    Thoughts on this Bounder?

    When it comes to rubber roofs, Bumpy has a love/hate relationship. Without the love. :)

    Actually, they both LOOK nice.

    the rambler appears to be on the new improved Ford chassis. the winnie is on the old chassis with 16 inch rims. at least neither is on the old P-30/32 chassis. does the rambler have a rubber roof? if so I wouldn't want it.
