Wow, lots of great info here !! Thanks to all who responded. I am definitely looking for more HP than I would have thought necessary. I was kinda thinking anything above 300 would be way more powerful than my current Ford V-10 but I see just about all the pushers weigh more than my gasser. It looks like they are made with higher quality materials . I am now posting another topic on which rigs come with solid fiberglass roofs. I am having trouble with the ads .....

I have the 330 hp Cat in my 35 foot DP. It is adequate for my driving, but I think I'm right at the edge as far as having enough power. I have a Dodge Dakota toad so it's on the heavy side, but there are some grades on Freeways in California where I'm down to 45 mph with my foot on the floor. The Grapevine for example.
