YEAH!! We are officially RV owners!! We ended up buying the 1999 Nat'l Dolphin thanks to all of your great advice. We really appreciated EVERY response we received.

I am going to start a new post, as we are now in the need of some new dolphin decals.

DON"T GET THE 460 F-53!!

16" tires, inadequate brakes, terrible ride, handled worse, fuel pump problems, what am I forgetting?

V-10, 19.5 rims, better brakes, wide track axles.


What you're forgetting is you're making it mighty hard for me to sell my rig when the time comes

I also have a '99 National RV (SeaBreeze) V 10..... DEFINITELY better than the 460. Gas mileage mid 9s versus mid 7s. Handles better too. Ride is a little stiff though
