I am not sure of the year Coachmen Mirada that you are looking at but all the ones I have seen have the small cut out doors like on Class C's where as the others have the full basement storage doors. What size are you looking at? I would also look for pass thru basement storage for storing bikes, ladders, tables etc. Some Miradas, have one large pass thru under the rear bed and that may be enough storage for you depending on how you plan to use the MH. To me storage, water, and battery power are more important than the type of awning. Older Bounders were known for their large fresh water tanks.
