We are looking at our 1st Class A and have been looking at this gasser. Any reviews on this motorhome? Good/bad?

Thanks for any help!

Fleetwood does built a very nice M/h no matter which one of their lines you choose. We have a fleetwood and just love it. Minimal problems with ours. Ours is a 2002 and in all these years none of the inside components have failed at all. The brakes gave is some problems but taken care of now. The gas engine and tranny have run great.

By sway, you mean the tail waging. A rear track bar fixes that problem, If you mean side to side rocking, moving the sway bar links to the inside hole will help a great deal. Have you personally driven the MH? Take it for a ride and if the road is clear steer left and right while on the road to see how it does. A salesman will be with you, ask why it does what it does and how to fix it.

problem with that and alot of gas coaches is the longer than should be rear overhang. I think fleetwood uses a 228 inch wheel base on the 34. if its on a 20,500 lb chasis walk away. 22,000 would probably be ok.

From the research I have done on this site, it seems people warn about swaying with RV's that have longer rear end(for lack of better words). To me....this Class A has the rear wheels more forward. Any issues with this?

We purchased a 2014 Bounder Classic 34B earlier this summer. We love it. We thought it was a great value for the price. Also happy with the quality of the unit and its features.

What DOT date on the tires? Tires over 5 years old MAY (probably) need to be replaced. This can add a lot of money to the cost.

"sandhills".....The Fleetwood Bounder is probably the most popular and best selling RV of ALL TIME. I think you'll find it a great choice and will serve you well for years.
