Hello all, my wife and I had full timed in a 38' HR Endeavor from 2001-2003. Now we have the bug again and are looking for a used MH to do some more travelling.
We are leaning toward a Tiffin product, based on their reputation as having excellent service, but I really like the looks of the Pace Arrow. Fleetwood service usually gets bad grades on this forum, but after the experiences we had with Monaco, maybe they are all like that.
I would welcome any feedback,good or bad on either the Tiffin models (gas) or the Pace Arrow as far as reliability,comfort,functionality,and service.
Thank You in advance for any and all replies John and Judy

Love my Tiffin, no real issues. Great product, am sure the Pace Arrow is good also.

The Tiffin product will most likely have a longer wheel base to length ratio and Tiffin's factory support and customer service after the sale is excellent! Bagman.

We love our new Allegro Bay. Haven't had to work with any real problems yet but do have a couple of minor things. Some air conditioner vents don't open properly, some cracking of plastic dash vents due to too much exposure in the parking lot without covering the windshield etc. I keep hearing that Tiffen is legendary when it comes to service so I do hope that is true when the time comes.
Both retired. 1 year until son finishes college, then financial freedom! We lost Max, the Schnoodle after 16 wonderful years but now enjoy Nicklaus Von Schnoodle (Nicky), who is a full time job. Our new Allegro Bay 34 XB is wonderful.

Very happy with our Tiffin and our Tiffin dealer. No significant problems with the coach and dealer service has been excellent. Have no experience with a Pace Arrow but no reason to think it is anything but a fine product. The dealer where we bought our first fifth wheel no longer carries Pace Arrows because (he said) Fleetwood consistently refused to honor what were clear and obvious warranty claims.

We have never owned a Tiffin or a Fleetwood product. We have heard such great things about Tiffin's customer service, but in the gas line, the Fleetwood products look better than Tiffin's. I would look at both, drive both, then decide.

Which ever one your wife likes the best. Next to that - where you want to go for service. (distance vs cost to get there). Check with a local independant RV repair person. They may be able to do warrenty work on both brands.
My first class A was a Southwind. No problem with it. (maybe I was the exception). Good luck

Check the CCC on both. I looked at a gorgeous used Pace Arrow that had 1100 miles on it. I then looked at the CCC. It could carry 760 pounds.
