I wasn't aware that a 1998 even had the V10, so what year did they quit with the 460 cu in V8?

After looking at several RVs we ended up buying one from the wife's parents. They decided to sell it and we came out with a good deal on it. And it has been in the family the whole time. We ended up picking up a 1998 Fleetwood Bounder - 37 footer. It is the Ford V10 and is in really good shape for a 1998, based off the others we have looked at in the age range. Even has a Good Sam extended warranty on it!
Thank you all for the input on the Winnebago!

Ford V-10 has issues with spark plugs breaking off when trying to be replaced. Best to have current owner do tune-up including spark plugs.
Appliances are always issues on some rigs. make sure they all work.
Dash air is an issue but isn't that costly normally to fix. Have current owner get it done by a shop.

I took my 2002 Ford V10 in for new spark plugs, cost est. was $300, service mgr. said the V10's do not brake off, but the V8's can be a problem. They have to work V8 plugs back and forth with 30 lbs. of torque to remove then. The cost for the V8 was $500.

Hello Everyone New to Class A's and also to the forums.
I am Currently looking at Used Class As and have really like the looks and layout of the 2001 Winnebago Adventures. I have looked at one so far and wanted to see if there are any problem areas with this make and model I should be on the look out for. I have been reading through the Used buyers post on here and plan to go through that when I go to take a deeper look at the MH.
The one I am currently looking at is on the Ford Chassis, I know it needs new tires as the current tires are from 2006 and the in dash AC is only blowing hot air.
Thank You in advance and I can't wait to start my RV life!
