New Super C Motorhomes from Thor Motorcoach

Being a fan of diesel engines and their longevity I'm happy to see more Diesel Class C Motorhomes at this years Tampa RV Show. Not that I'm ready for a new motorhome yet but the new Super C Motorhomes by Thor looked really good, especially for such a low price? I've found them on RV Trader for around 110K. They built both their new "Super C Motorhomes" on a Ford F550 Duper Duty Chassis, seems like one of the best choices for a diesel Class C RV. Does anyone have any long term opinions of the Ford F-550 Chassis especially the new 2014's?

Here are few snap shots of the Four Winds 33SW Super C Motorhome from the Tampa RV Show:

  • For IndianaBoy from the above thread.
    "I would encourage every one to call/contact Ford Warranty department and get it via email in writing, what the warranty is on your Ford 6.7 diesel, and advise them that an engineering defect is being examined by NHTSA on Ford HPFP failures also"
  • I saw that thing pop up on their website last week. Unfortunately it is only available with the diesel, not the V10. Until the CP4 fuel pump issues get sorted out, you can consider any diesel equipped with it a no-go for me.

    For those who have not heard, the CP4 problems aren't a simple "Argg motorhome won't start now I have to drop the tank" problem.

    Its more like "vehicle suddenly stalls in the middle of the freeway and then I have to buy a new fuel system for $11,000 because I got lucky unlike my neighbor who also had to buy a new motor for $22,000".

    There is lots of good info here:
