    Go bigger - you'll be glad. RV.net is a great resource - when I was shopping everybody said go as big as you can. I actually wanted a 30 footer - now I'm glad I got the 35 - plenty of room.

    If you keep the enclosed go deisel. You don't want to be white knuckling it up every hill and arriving at the track exhausted or stuck on the side of the road overheated.

    I understand that the Ford V10's (at least the ones in the trucks) have a problem where they will blow out sparkplugs, destroying the threads, which requires the head to be removed to fix.

    I don't know about the sparkplug issue described above, but I have no problem with the Ford V10. I purchased a 29' Class C Winnebago and tow a 24' enclosed trailer. It is a little slow on some of the longer hills but the best purchase ever made. I agree with Ben to purchase as large as you can (29' was the longest I could get in my driveway and store next to the garage.).
