X2. There were also engine changes (for the better) in at least the Ford chassis.
We've been (and still are) quite satisfied with the 2000 MH we bought in 2005. The only appliances I've had to fix was the furnace (bad fuel solenoid) and the water heater (bad electric element). The furnace cost me about $300 for parts before I found the bad part and the water heater element was less than $20.
We put another 5500 miles on it this fall without any problems.

You can get into a very nice '93 or '94 Foretravel at that price. Foretravels of that vintage will easly compare to many late model other brand gas rigs.

Another (maybe silly) question - Can you tow more with a Class A vs a Class C MH? I'm thinking of towing a Jeep Commander...
