thinking of buying a itasca sunstar 30t
ok we have only been camping two years and had a 2014 roadtrek agile that we put on rvtrader to sell and sold way to fast, so it's gone and now we want a class A. we are looking at a 2014 itasca sunstar 30t. the inside is perfect for us and the size is manageable, only 31'
i have been reading up on the rv and this one has the v10 gas engine however i am reading alot about problems with towing a car. we plan on towing a car once we buy one (any ideas where to look?) and it seems many complain about the speed decreasing and shifting to 2nd etc. which we don't understand. we are not mechanical and firmly believe in the reason god made mechanics was for us.
so, i guess what i'm wondering is it really going to be worth it or should i go for an older diesel pusher, it's a 2005 winne journey 34'
we were used to the roadtrek because that was diesel and we had no problems at all, just the routine maintenance.
just asking out there if anyone can give their opinions and suggestions, we don't want to make a huge mistake since we do want to use the new one to head south for the winter and explore warmer climates.
btw, the difference in price between the 2014 itasca gas and 2005 winne diesel is only 10k (diesel one cheaper of course) so the price factor is not the issue, it would be the comfort level or the new rv we would be purchasing.
also, if you have suggestions on any that would be awesome, we can to stay below 34' length.
thanks everyone
