Hi folks. I'm looking to trade up from my 1992 Southwind 30 and am considering a 2005 Damon Daybreak 3272W Class A with the 8,1L Chevy Vortec V8. It's a Gasser on a Workhorse chassis with 39000kms on it. Looks good on the dealer website but as it's at a bit of a distance from where I live I thought I'd see what you folks thought before killing a day looking at something that may turn out to be a lemon somehow!
Any opinions on Damon coaches in general? Anyone own(ed) or driven this 2005 model? How about the 8.1 V8 engine? I have seen more write-ups about the Ford V10. Is the Chevy Vortec a good powerplant? I assume it's a step up from my current rig's chevy 454 but I know nothing about it in terms of power or reliability.
And FWIW, the dealer is asking $39,900 CAD certified and e-tested, taxes extra (13% HST).
Good deal or one to avoid??
