Thinking of downsizing from DP to View
Looking for advice, considering downsizing from our HR Ambassador 40dst to a View style class C. There seems to be a broad price range even on the same chassis. Any feedback on MFGs to stay away from...

Hi Phil,
The OP mentioned that he wanted sleeping accommodations for 4 adults. Though a Phoenix Cruiser 2350 can sleep 4 adults with the optional sofa bed in a slide-out, I think a View with cab-over bunk would be much more accommodating and comfortable.
Our Phoenix Cruiser 2350 as-is without the optional slide-out, is ideal for us 2 adults. We rarely have a 3rd guest sleeping on the dinette conversion. When we do, it is quite disruptive. Having the extra person in an upper bunk of a class C would be quite the opposite.
Phoenix Cruisers come in 21 to 31 foot lengths, 9 different models with slide-outs galore if you want them. But without a cab-over bunk of a class C like the View has, I feel they are all designed around the comfort of two adults. It's all about "permanent beds". As soon as a couch or dinette requires "converting", it's a different experience for the worse. If a guest or two is exceptionally rare as in our case, then a B+ is the better choice. That is my thought about it for what it is worth.
