Was looking ar a small A
Have run across a small (31') Damon class A, an Avanti with a small diesel. Kinda odd seeing a front diesel in particularlly with a V-6 turbo diesel (4.5 liter Maxxforce) which apparently had issues early on but was better in later years, this one was from the last year of production of that engine, and an Allison 6 speed.
Has anyone had one of these, and was it a nightmare. This 2010 with 40k miles seems on the surface to be a nice little unit, and stuff I read on the other forum indicated fuel economy claims from current owner are not exaggerated at 13.5 to 14. The idea of a small diesel is appealing, and I dont normally drive over 60 anyway so I dont believe the small diesel would be too bad.
