    Just saw that floor plan at Motor Home Specialists, very impressive when you enter the coach with nice finishes and great kitchen. Hope you enjoy it in good health for many years to come.

    I really like the Fleetwood Excursion/renamed Pace Arrow for '17 for many reasons if we do decide to go diesel instead of gas for our future motorhome. But I am a bit flabbergasted that Fleetwood chooses to still put side curtains in the windows up front instead of pull down shades like it appears every other window has on this model. I think Winnebago still does this also on their top of line gas class A Adventurer. Seems silly and cheap. What gives?

    Huge congrats to OP on your beautiful new class A!


    Yep, this will be our first change when we get the coach, I found the curtains not attractive and distracting while driving.

    Great looking coach - that is one of the few layouts that made good use of a Mid section TV for actually viewing it!

    Kevin,

    Oh, I see slide table now. Yes, that is a smart design!
