Irrespective of brand, that time frame saw some real changes in diesel drivetrains, particularly the move from 4 speed to the current Allison 6 speed transmissions.
So, I would suggest posting the engine/transmission and also chassis of prospective coaches.
From the looking I've been doing, most are equipped with the Cummins 8.3 but a very few have been CAT powered. I don't have any particular coaches picked out, just a general knowledge of "this is the floor plan and model coach" we want. I would have no qualms about people offering up the wisdom about which engine/tranny combination would be a better choice. I figure we're likely about a year out on pulling the trigger on something like this. We just put a roof on the Dolphin and we're taking her to Branson next month. I've got lots more time to research but those two models have the thumbs up of approval from the DW.
