2008 Coachmen Class A - Diesel reviews

Love our coach, drives well, great fuel mileage (10.5) Not a fan of the seating for TV viewing but we didn't purchase it to sit and watch TV. Excellent coach that's considered a entry level coach. Cummins 300 hp diesel does a great job. We have not taken it up really steep mountains so we can't review the engine power. We have taken it up and down 6% grades and does fine. Engine retarder works well. Very satisfied. Show less

Small but can fit in a regular parking space if you can back up to open area. Planning on redoing interior to brighten it up and convert the over cab bed to storage. Small but functional shower. Could use more counter space for cooking prep, but if you like to cook outdoors that’s fine. Large storage “garage”. Works well for 2 people or less. Show less

If you want counter space this is the perfect Rv. Most rvs lack counter space this is perfect for entertaining. We have 3 tvs so everyone can watch what they wish. Had it now for 5 years and have enjoyed living in it for 5 months of the year in key west Fla. Easy to handle flat towing or dolly towing. Just the right size to get in and out of any rv park. There is lots of basement storage and lots of cubbies inside too. Good rv for the money. This was our first rv and was a trial to see if rving was for us, we love it ! We are buying a class a rv next. Show less

This is the best RV I have ever owned. Drives great. It is easy for me (a female) to drive and set up. So easy. I love the privacy of the bedroom in the back. I love all the extras it has. I love everything about it really. Nothing negative to report at all. Show less

We have used RV for over 50 years and this unit has been the easiest to drive and live in. We have found that not having a slideout eliminates problems with the motor for the slide out as well as roof leakage during rain. The short 24 feet is easy to drive and the optional brake controller we installed for towing makes for an easy tow of a small car or trailer (max 5000 lbs). The RV sleeps 6 adults with all large beds. The rear storage compartment is huge and can hold bikes and other large items as well as the spare tire. The Chevy engine is very quiet and runs smooth and is very reliable. This RV was made during the time that RVs were inspected before leaving the factory. We have heard that after 2010 the building of Rvs were more rushed and final inspections had to be done at point of sale and the quality is only as good a the local dealer. Show less

We really love this unit as a starter RV. In our two years of full timeing we have done and seen so many wonderful things with really no problems at all We just want a bigger unit because we want to settle down some and not travel as much But it really is a great RV for seeing the country.

Floor plan sold us especially with the quad slides. We added a fireplace below the tv. Xcr chassis works nice. I added a Bully Dog tuner to the 360 hp Cummins 8.3 isc, no issues so far. Overall really enjoy the coach Show less

I drove it from Pa to SC with a trailer loaded with over 2000 lbs and it filled with clothes and more tools then lived in it for 2 moths and everything worked perfectlyt the drive down was very good with no problems it handeld very nicely Show less

We love this rv. It handled very well. Before we got it, I wouldn't even drive my car on the interstate because the traffic scared me. But this was so fun to drive, before the end of the first summer I was driving on the interstate in this rv. I even pulled our boat or towed our car and went off by myself! This rv was so easy to setup. I would take it and get to the campground, get it all setup myself (including levelling) and then my husband would show up when he got off work and all he had to do was sit down and open his beer! He had it good for sure. We hated to sell it, but life happens and we just couldn't get away like we used to. We feel the Coachmens are very well built and would highly recommend this rv. Show less

This RV has been excellent for local camping or long-distance cross country camping. It is perfect for a young couple with small children or a mature couple looking to explore the U.S. Enjoy!! Show less
