As you may note by my signature, I too have a 1996 Coach. I've owned this RV for about 13 years now with normal wear and tear issues including: tires twice, new Refer, new water heater, two new air's, a new alternator, batteries now and again). Mechanically speaking(knock on wood)...it's been Great. Granted it's an older engine(CAT 3176B) but it's been rock solid along with the very heavy duty Allison HD4060 Trans. While I'd love to have a new 4 slide coach with all the gadgets, I will drive this one until it doesn't drive anymore. It's been paid for for years so I figure I'm money ahead. If it last the rest of my RV'ing life, I'd be very happy!!!
