As to the 3rd noise being frame noise I'd suspect that the dealer has the tire pressure set at the max. as shown on the side wall of the tire. Once you buy any unit get it weighed, then go to the tire makers chart for the appropriate air pressure i.e. our max tire pressure on the tire is 120psi, according to my weighs I run 100 in the front and 90 in the rears, this is according to the tire makers chart.
My personal recommendation is that you get that coach weighed BEFORE you buy and not after. There are a number of coaches that are already overweight and you need to avoid this disaster. Additionally, you would be able to check the weight at each tire (not just front and read axles) to see if you have a weight issue on any one tire. Finally, you could have the dealer adjust the tire pressure (if appropriate) and see how the coach rides with the proper tire inflation. Any dealer not willing to do all of this should be left asking "Where'd he go"?
