Don't get hung up on chassis brands, both have good points and bad points. I've had both and both can do the job. Also, if you are looking at prices, comparing an Eagle to a Rev is apples to oranges.
You're right about that and with the 07 vintages, you're talking about $40K in book value. Not sure where it's at, after studying them closely, but the Eagle does carry the American name and that is very important to some.
Didn't realize that the 40J Eagle had a CAT, so that does give one an option for engine selection and assuming that you like it's floor plan.
Don't get me wrong here, as I do like the Eagles in those years, although it did surprise me, when I found out that they didn't even include a digital display for it's workings and engine diagnostics.
You also gotta realize, that Fleetwood went all out with a few years of these REVs, being built on the American platform and wanting to make a statement with a top of the line coach, carrying their name. All this adds up to a pretty good bang for the buck, IMO and it is all about money, with so many out there, that are quality built and with those to choose from.
