2008 Class C reviews

I’ve purchased the rig used at 15 years old. At this point I’ve owned her for 3 years drive. 12k and camped for about 100 nights during that time. The house structure: body, roof, windows, etc have been solid. The paint as some very minor checking. The house is solid and is very quiet going down the road. The engine, trans and spartan mid engine chassis work extremely well. This is a very quick coach and even flat tows my 4Runner well. Steering and road feel is great and is as planted as newer coaches. Having the engine and transmission in the middle of the coach is a well balanced ride and more neutral steering than other 40+ foot coaches. Great true 4 season coach. All electric and diesel only. RV king bed with additional sink in bedroom while still having a sink in toilet room. The garage moving floor makes loading bikes or 4 wheeler a breeze. This coach is great and everywhere I go it’s a unicorn. Negatives: This is a mid engine Coach so basement storage is not the same as other pushers. To support high of the garage some head room is taken away from the bedroom. Ceiling is about 6’7” in bedroom. Mid engine location makes that some engine servicing must happen from inside the Coach, more than with a pusher however all servicing components are accessible. Engine sound in the kitchen area is as loud as it would be in the bedroom of a pusher. Summary: This is a premium well build coach. This is perfect for owners needing the garage function while still having towing power and 4 season flexibility. Show less

This RV was my second one after having a smaller RV. With double slide outs and the split layout makes it seem like a small apartment rather than a studio on wheels. I lived in it full time for 17 years and was quite content. Upgrading the refrigerator from the factory 6.0 cu. ft. to a store bought 9 cu. ft. really made a difference. The water heater is a bit small in my opinion (6 gl.), but you learn to be conservative with the hot water usage. Handles well on the road and no real problems with a towed vehicle. Show less

Excellent floor plan. Way ahead of its time as far as interior. Color scheme is beautiful. Highest ceiling height in the industry. Very solid on the highway without getting pushed around by trucks. Comfortable and a definite eye-catcher. Show less

It drives like a Cadillac, easy to set up, new slideout covers, new floor, has a hitch to tow a car. Has a couple TV's bedroom has a Queen sleep number bedvery comfortable. Kitchen never used only used the microwave and refrigerator. Has a couch and a chair to Recline in. Nice stereo system,has a back up camera. It has 4 slidouts to make the bedroom and living space bigger. Show less

The build quality is second to none. The interior space is very large, given the short length and no slides. All equipment is top notch. The Workhorse chassis and GM engine make driving a breeze (especially if suspension upgrades have been taken care of) Show less

I saw an ad for the sale of the same model and year of my Plearure-way. So, I thought I would share my experience. My wife and I own and travel in our 2008 Ford Pleasure-way. It has been very wonderful to camp across the United States. I can easily park the vehicle -- it is only 20 feet long. 2008 Pleasure-way Excel TS Class B motorhome is Pleasureway's most popular model. It has a wide-body with a forward facing sofa that also makes into a 6'4' bed. The generator in our unit is loud, so we do not use it. We do not seem to need it. It has lots of cabinet storage both inside and out. The kitchen has all the essentials. It has an outdoor shower hose, but we have never used it. The gets about 14 miles per gallon -- 17 tops. I hope this information helps someone. Show less

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

I tow a trailer with my car and my RV handles well without any problems and the brake controller is a safety feature to assist with stopping the trailer. The air ride suspension is also an added feature for the comfort of the ride. Show less
