RE: Tiers of Motohomes

Yeah, I know how to evaluate a specific unit to determine if it is worth buying. I just want to gauge build and component quality as my first filter to get me to the units I want to spend money to have them inspected.
I'm leaning toward Pace Arrow, Southwind, or Damon Intruder.

RE: Tiers of Motohomes

Amazing how many people don't know what 'tier' means. No one actually answered the OP's question. I suppose contacting the manufacturer, or a long standing dealer ofspecific brands in question might help get the answer. Good luck.

Thanks, Ed. I guess another option is finding original msrp...

RE: Tiers of Motohomes

1. My question had nothing to do with Tires.
2. The reason I'm asking is higher grade models are typically built with better components that will have a longer life. It's why people are more likely to buy a 30 year old Honda over a 20 year old Kia.

RE: Tiers of Motohomes

I wasn't saying Tires and mis-spelled it. I purposefully said "Tiers." The reason manufacturers have the same floorplans but different model names (Bounder vs. Southwind for instance) is because one is built with cheaper quality items, resulting in lower price. I want to know where I can find out which RV lines are the cheaper vs. the top line products by manufacturer and year. As an example, I think of the 7 gas motorhome lines I mentioned for Fleetwood, the Bounder is the low quality and Southwind is top of the line for that manufacturer, but I don't know where all the others fall into the lineup. (I know the discovery is a Diesel Pusher, so I don't compare it to the others listed.)
Thanks,

Tiers of Motohomes

I'm looking at a lot of 20 year old motorhomes, because I have a tight budget. I can't find anything to help me identify the different tiers of motorhome within a brand. As an example, Fleetwood in that period has Bounder, Bounder Classic, Southwind, Storm, Pace Arrow, Pace Arrow Vision, Flair, and Discovery... and that's just the Class-A's. I'm also considering Class-C's so there's a hole other mess of lines of Class-C Fleetwood RV's. Is there a source that identifies the different tiers for older motorhomes?
I only used Fleetwood as an example, I'm still looking at other brands also. I just want to figure out were they budget, mid-tier, or top of the line brands when I look at an RV.
I couldn't find anything on this type of question, so I apologize if this has been answered, and would appreciate a link.
