Both are 2007 and almost same price.
HR Ambassador SKT,RR8R chassis,Cummins 330 isc,glass roof,steel cage cockpit(I like that)
Fleetwood Revolution Le Spartan chassis,400 C9 Cat,1-1/2 bath,glass roof.

Thoughts? We like all in one baths no walk throughs.

I would go after the 400 CAT as I know there is no DEF required. My CAT has given me no problmes. I think the Holiday has a better chassis but both are good vehicles.

just my 2 cents... Which is worth about that!


Hmmm I thought the Spartan was the better of the two.

I would try to drive them both and evaluate in a side by side comparison things such as ride, power, floor plan livability, etc. then decide. Remember, most of us tow a vehicle. That will take some of the get up and go from either coach. Engine wise I might lean toward the larger C-9 CAT, but I have never driven a coach with the Roadmaster chassis so I cannot comment on that.

In this case, floor plan rules.....Both coaches are very good, but like Fishinghat, I much prefer the Roadmaster RR8R chassis and Cummins engine.

Both are very good choices. I'd prefer the Cummins over the Cat, but both are good engines that will outlast the coaches (and you) if taken care of. If I had to pick I'd choose the HR.
