Most agree that two of the top motorhome brands is Newmar and Tiffin. There are also a couple that are almost universally known at the bottom of the brands. Where is Winnebago? I hardly ever he...

"Mondooker".....not really trying to be critical.....but after a while, your head will explode. We did the manufacturer tour thing in 2004. We went to Country Coach, Western RV (Alpine Coach) and Monaco. We really liked the Alpine Coach and at the time it looked like a Nascar plant. Country Coach was just as impressive. Monaco was our last visit and the plant was nasty, dirty work areas, metal everywhere and spray on body coating all over everything.
In 2005, we bought a new Monaco Diplomat. Alpine Coach was on the verge of going out of business and the products looked terrible. Country Coach was nice, but none of the floorplans did it for us. Then we saw the Diplomat with a 400 ISL and a great floorplan. I later learned that all of that spray coating really protected the coach and kept things sealed.
My point.....you'll know what lights your fire and you'll know what is a piece of junk. You've got a good base, go out and look at them, look at the wiring looms and how they are finished behind stuff you don't normally see. Ranking DP's is probably a little easier than gas coaches. Gas coaches are limited to one chassis and "X" amount of weight. Just go look at he finish and decide.
