Holiday Rambler or Fleetwood

Never owned a HR although have seen many very nice ones. Even in older age still look very impressive. We have owned two Spartan Chassis and have not had any trouble with either. One with independent front suspension and one without and I seriously can not tell the difference driving but loss of wheel cut is noticed in some instances. I have made choices when Spartan was not available but that is just the way I think. Drive both and decide. Larry

The Spartan LE chassis was one of the strongest ever made. If you look up NADA original and now, I think the Revolution is higher in both cases. Having said that, we were all set to buy an Ambassador until we saw our Revolution. It is ALL about condition.
By the way, we love our Revolution, so we are biased...

Spartan is better than a "Freightshaker" but the 8 bag Roadmaster is the better of these 2.

Both are 2007 and almost same price.
HR Ambassador SKT,RR8R chassis,Cummins 330 isc,glass roof,steel cage cockpit(I like that)
Fleetwood Revolution Le Spartan chassis,400 C9 Cat,1-1/2 bath,glass roof.

Thoughts? We like all in one baths no walk throughs.

Im a Fleetwood man thru and thru and I always prefer larger engines...but with your specs....Id go the HR with the 330 hp Cummins

I would go after the 400 CAT as I know there is no DEF required. My CAT has given me no problmes. I think the Holiday has a better chassis but both are good vehicles.

just my 2 cents... Which is worth about that!

Hmmm I thought the Spartan was the better of the two.

I would try to drive them both and evaluate in a side by side comparison things such as ride, power, floor plan livability, etc. then decide. Remember, most of us tow a vehicle. That will take some of the get up and go from either coach. Engine wise I might lean toward the larger C-9 CAT, but I have never driven a coach with the Roadmaster chassis so I cannot comment on that.

In this case, floor plan rules.....Both coaches are very good, but like Fishinghat, I much prefer the Roadmaster RR8R chassis and Cummins engine.

Both are very good choices. I'd prefer the Cummins over the Cat, but both are good engines that will outlast the coaches (and you) if taken care of. If I had to pick I'd choose the HR.
