Workhorse Opinions

I've got a Workhorse also. Yes, it certainly has power - no problems in the Rocky Mountains - passing 40' diesel pushers on the hills while towing. However, my wife gets upset when, at a stop light, I open my window and challenge the guy in the Corvette next to me to drag to the next lights. (just kidding) I've not needed any major service...just oil changes and those are easy. I did change out a fuel filter but was able to mail order the exact filter needed. However, I am now on a discontinued chassis - so I worry about facing parts shortages. So far, though, this has not been an issue.

Mine is a Workhorse W24 chassis and I couldn't be more pleased with it so far. Plenty of power and a smooth, strong transmission. The grade brake feature of the transmission works wonderfully in the hill and mountain country.

If you are considering a workhorse W22 or W24 be sure the brake recall has been completed. Dealer can check it for you, or you can contact Workhorse directly.

I have the 8.1, Allison transmission/workhorse chassis. In my 07 Coachman Epic. No issues at all - we flat tow a 05 Honda Element and I have to turn the rear camera on to make sure it's even there!
