My Monaco DP is 22 years old, 1998. Just this year, 2 trips to Myrtle Beach 600mi, one to Tampa 1300mi, 2 trips to Darlington, SC 250mi. Zero problems. It gets a complete mechanical service every spring and tires every 6 years. Most hateful thing ever was dash heater core replacement. 94,000mi and counting. Nothing wrong with a 454 except they drink gas. I sometime wonder at what others think are other than normal maintenance costs. I don't care if it is new things break and if you can't fix them yourself be prepared to pay. I am 81 years old and do most of the work myself. Lots of help on here and you tube is your friend.
