You are correct - the '08 would have Comfort Drive.
So do you guys like comfort drive? Is it a must have?

I believe the American coaches are better then the Tiffins or Newmars. Might want to check out an Eagle or a Tradition etc. For $150,000 you might be able to find one made around 2009.
American certainly makes a nice coach, just be sure to check for delamination and checking fiberglass so many suffer from.
The delamination issue can be found pretty much across the line, the checking fiberglass is far more common on the darker colors.
In the Delamination you speak of. Are you saying that ther's an issue called Checking Fiberglass or I should Check the Fiberglass for issues? Oh! and what should I look for when Checking the Fiberglass? I know Newmar uses Fiberglass wall about 1/4" where some other MH use a glued laminate...

We bought a 2000 with 8670 miles showing in 2009, Yes we had a wake up period, new tires, belts hoses ect. but we got a great deal.
May I ask which MH you purchased...? Sounds nice
