Bob: I bought my 32.5' C class Four Winds Chateau new in 2002. E 450 / V 10. I service it a lot!! Change the Oil every 2500. Change the Gen Oil every race. and service the tranny twice a year. It has 69K miles. Never had one problem, everything still works - great Quality for a C Class. I DO use a trailer toad, and highly recommend using one. Plenty of power pulling my 26' Motorsport loaded. I get around 9mpg at 50-60mph, and it'll drop to 7 at 70mph or in the mountains. The biggest problem with the C Class is the rear over hang. You'll drag at even the slightest curb, like going into gas stations. This is completely solved with the Trailer Toad and it will add years of life to your coach. The other thing you have to watch is rear swing. With all the rear over hang, the pivot point is the rear axle. Just because the front end fits, be really careful in tight spot turns. JB
