95 Monaco Executive or 98 Monaco Exectuive?

I would love some advice on which one to buy and some input into the differences or improvements between years? I have also considered the Beaver Patriot of similar age. I am going to be in a colder climate and want the dual pane windows,Im also concerned about the insulation improvements between the years. Im not even sure if the 95 Monaco has them? oddly enough the owner didnt know either? I am shopping anywhere in the country for the right DP in the 30k to 40k range. I have been doing my homework and try to get an understanding of different between manufactures along with the good points and bad points. If anyone knows of a good source that i can check on the "stats"of different older models i would greatly appreciate it! I have learned so much over the past few days reading the different posts on this site!
Thanks to all! Newbie, Billy Rock

    Both the '95 and the '98 were built before Monaco started having financial difficulties, so both should be well built coaches.

    As for getting information from Monaco, ownership has completely changed since those were built and only the name is the same. At one time you could go to their web site and put in the VIN, and get a copy of the build sheet. That would show you who supplied the appliances as well as the size of the holding tanks, etc. I doubt the company has maintained the data base, but go to their web site and give it a try. If that doesn't work, give them a call. Again, you'll need the VIN numbers to get specifics.

    You may try contacting Monaco directly. They have brochures online but only goes back to model year 2000. Maybe they have something they could send you.
