Well, I went down to Giant RV in Montclair, Ca. to check out one of these myself and I just loved it. The fit and finish were above average and the drive will change your mind about loud rough driving Super C's. In fact, I liked it so much I bought it.

What I liked:

The towing power of the F550 with a 35,000 GCWR will finally allow you to use the capacity of that 10,000 lb hitch. Its under 35 ft, Dual A/C, Whirlpool residential fridge, 1800 watt inverter, auto gen start, self leveling jacks, ample storage, residential king size mattress, big shower, electric awning, electric step. I also liked the overall floorplan and large bunk above the cab.

I've owned toyhaulers mostly and one diesel pusher and this is my first C Class. I think I'm gonna like it.

I'll post more with pics later.

very cool!!!!

Yes, post some pics. Take one of the bunk bed if you can. I'm pretty surprised about the residential fridge. We like to dry camp now and then and I'm not sure I'd want to run a fridge from an inverter.

Also, I'd love to know the MPG after you've taken it somewhere.

I am interested to know how this will handle the wind while driving. I really like everything you mentioned above, but I am concerned about driving in heavy winds. I will be towing 8K lbs in a a 24' trailer almost every time we use it. I would love to hear your thoughts verses your diesel pusher.

Well I was able to walk in to one of the Chateau Super C Motorhomes, it's the sister to the Four Winds Super C. I liked Ford's interior cab, it's a lot more refined than what I've seen in most others.


The motorhome's bed above the cab was very big, largest I've seen. Two adult could sleep up there very comfortably. I wish I could replace my fridge with the one in this coach but I measured and it just can't be done. :-(

So what was your opinion of the fit and finish? storage? appliances? anything else that wow'd you or you didnt like?

I would do some research on Navistar. in a conference call late last year, their CEO stated that Navistar will concentrate on their core business, which are semi's. i interpret that to mean they will sell their Monaco, LLC business as it is not their core business. Last year i purchased a Monaco Montclair (B+). i took it in last December for warranty work and finally got final payment yesterday, this was after 3 or 4 follow-up emails and 2 follow-up phone calls. i don't know if this is related or not, but it could be.

I don't own one but saw it at a show, not my layout (have kids) but overall I thought it was well executed with some cool attention to details.

So has anyone purchased this model yet? Would like to hear some reviews.
