One I am looking at has "Fleetwood Flair 33R, 2007 Fleetwood Flair Model 33R Class A has two super size slide outs. One slide out in the living room and one in the bedroom for maximum square footage. Powered by a Ford 362 HP Triton V-10 engine, a 5 speed Torq-Shift transmission and has a Ford F53 chassis. Back up Camera, 5,000# trailer hitch and towing package, auto leveling jacks.."
Says its a F53 frame and 362 HP.... Been a diesel guy for about 15 years.. Heard many horror stories about the V10. Wish I could keep my cummins and do a transplant.....
The Triton V-10 is a very good engine. I used to get around 8-9 mpg. I do not know what kind of horror stories you have heard, but the Ford V-10 engine is a very good engine.
