To the person recommending a used Monaco, did you forget about the RR4R trailing arm debacle that sank said Monaco. Also wiped out Safari, Holiday Rambler and Beaver. Replacing the trailing arms is very costly.
Do your homework and call the previous owner if you can.
I do not think I would denigrate Tiffin while RVing in a trailer, try owning a Tiffin first. Bob has the BEST factory service in the industry. I can call Bob anytime and talk to the owner of the company, try that with any other manufacturer.
I, too, believe Tiffin is a good RV to consider. All RV's are pretty much built the same (Newmar, Tiffin, Fleetwood, etc.).
But, the trailing arms were not the demise of Monaco at all. It was the crash if 2008 and the CEO trying to get too big too fast. (Typical CEO). Every RV manufacturer will have a glitch to correct. Tiffin's roof rails and sagging water compartments didn't put them under.
