Build quality gas vs DP
I looked at a 2001 Foretravel DP. It was the U270, their lower line at the time. Loved it. Is there any gasser that has high end build quality like that? I'm assuming not.

That's interesting about the Dolphin. When I see them in CGs, they look beat. That's just been my impression, I'm not trying to offend anyone. I will look more closely from now on.
No worries on my taking any offense:)! And Dolphin's came in different trim levels based upon the model years. Around 2005, you could get full body painted, with leather interior upgrades, a more modern interior design, and etc., etc. I feel that having the full body paint, and of course if well maintained, can make a difference on how a rig looks. These were I believe on the W24 Chassis, and that big 8.1. Can't recall if they had the Allison 5spd or came with the 6spd. But even the 5spd can be updated to 6spd. 34' were common, but they also had some up to 37'.
And another comment on the UFO rear engined 8.1. May have just been the coach I walked in, but when I walked the Lattitude at an RV sure, the floor was already scraped from he slide. Was not a great time for Winnebago, IMO, as I could visibly see gaps in the cabinet, and the materials choose just did not seem to be of good quality. (That is why I did not mention them. The Holiday Rambler one are few an far apart, and the Rexhall that looked like a space ship even more rare. Rexhall had a 37' and 39'. The 39" with the T-Rex super slides on each side, were big enough inside to square dance in. The 37' had more livable then many 42-43' coaches....
No horse in this race, just wanted to point out some of the Class A's we had considered when thinking we'd buy a 'holdover' coach until we retired.
