Looking at 2 Motorhome?s, ones a 98 Winnebago Adventurer on the Chevy P30 chassis (454 engine)
The other is a 1999 dolphin with the Ford V10 engine.
Winnebago pros: seems well taken care of
Older guy retired who is selling.
Outside looks nicer.
Like the basement storage better
Cons: interior has a lot of wood look.
Floor plan works but isn?t that great.
Needs inspection
Dolphin Pros: Wife loves the floor plan.
One year newer.
Interior looks more updated
No inspection required
Cons: outside looks more dated.
Basement storage is clumsy to me.
Needs a couple things done to it.
I guess it?s coming down to Ford V10 or the Chevy 454. I hear the Chevy can wander and be quite expensive to maintain the front end.
I currently have a 1996 Fleetwood with the 460 and the drivetrain has been pretty rock solid for me.
However they are each about 4.5 hours in opposite directions. So my kicker is that I really only want to go see one if possible, and I?m going tomorrow.
Any advice?
