We contemplated going from our aged 24' gas Class C to the 30-32' Class C units. Our expectations were that we would have a little more room and more towing capacity.
We looked at the typical motorhome owner lifecycle and agreed that 2-foot'itus was too small and we should just eliminate the next two motorhome purchases and go to the end-game.
We have a few friends that have Country Coach'es and while they love them, they hate them too... The love the rig, but hate the constant maintenance and repairs of a DP. We originally were looking at showhauler and Renegade that were on Class-8 platforms. Learning what we would weigh with our toys, and adding that to the the Seneca capacity, it was a real good fit for us (the newer Seneca's have more GCWR than we do 33k) and we decided to focus on floorplan with a list of our past preferences already well known.
The Seneca has been with us for 4 years now. -NO, we will not consider trading it in... Jayco no longer makes this model and we don't want a different floorplan. We have modded ours to what we want, some additional ones are still on the plan, but we used the heck out of ours till covid - and are about to depart on another 7-9 month adventure real soon...
The old sayin... Use it or loose it! rings true. Don't let it sit at the dealers service department for 9-months after you buy it... Plan to fix it yourself (with real craftsmen you hire) to fix it right.
