I have a 2015 Adventurer 38Q. It has plenty of power to tow the Honda CRV. I am very pleased with the way it handles the hills. I am also very pleased with the Winnebago quality. I have had a few issues with this rig but all have been taken care of to my satisfaction.

Thanks again for the replies.So far in our search our first choice would be a Winnebago Adventurer 38Q but I am wondering if a 38 footer and toad may be a bit much for the 26K chassis with the V10. I always thought that Winnebago was good quality but reading here today in other posts I guess that may no longer be true ? Seems like a lot of unhappy Winnebago owners. This is starting to seem like gambling you may get a good one or you possibly will have some major problems which is understandable moving a house down the road but former and current Winnebago owners here seem to be upset with support as well as quality. The 38Q is a 2014 leftover so the price is worth looking at but there are so many things that can come up from poor quality manufacturing. maybe back to the Tiffin website LOL

Our coach scales around 19k and the toad 6k. With the larger coach and small toad you'll be close to that. 30-35 mph is what we have been down to on some of the worst western grades in 2nd gear. It still has some reserve power at that speed.
Haven't yet been passed under such conditions by a 40k lb diesel rig, but maybe someday it will happen.
Thanks for the replies. Ductape When you encounter these conditions 30-35 mph what range of rpm is the V10 turning? I know I am not going to like the high RPM on the gas engines after so long with the diesel truck it will take some getting used to. Are there any past issues with over heating on the Ford chassis with the V10? I know the overheating can be related to the manufactures front end design but looking for any history
Thanks
