We became RV'ers this season when we bought a 2008 Jayco 36FS. It is a diesel super-c with a bunk house in one of the slides. We absolutely love it. There are 5 of us so we wanted a rig that could sleep all of us in beds without having to fold out a couch or dinette to sleep. Being a diesel, although a front engine, we have the power to do hills and tow 10k lbs but have the extra sleeping ability of the C class in the cabover. We just got back from Florida on vacation with it on Saturday.
We have looked at other rigs since buying ours and so far like this one the best. There were some impressive class A's at Fort Wilderness, but with 2 adults and 3 kids this style works better. A lot of the class A's are suited for couples or families with 1-2 kids unless you start folding stuff out. We are thinking we may sell ours at some point to get the same model brand new. The 2014 has a Freightliner chassis with air ride, and after stopping in PA on the way back to see one in person at a dealer we immediately fell in love.
As far as Camping World, I think their rig prices for both new and used are a bit high. We bought ours used with 5500 miles on it out of a dealer in Mississippi (consignment sale). Shop around!
What draws you to the particular model that you mentioned- did you like the style or was that just what they had for decent used ones? How many people are you looking to sleep?
