First off why I gave this a 4 star on Driving/towing, we pull a 6000 lb pickup truck and with an RV with 425 hp it slows the coach down about 5 mph more on a steep grade. The solution is to pay $50k + more for a 500 hp coach, or you just take your time...lol We love the 2 bathroom setup and would never go back to a single bath, it's a perfect his and hers set up. This coach is a 400 sq. ft. condo on wheels. It has everything you need for living in comfort for months at a time. It favors large campgrounds because of its size but you can easily dry camp for a week if you want. You can also pull into a Walmart for a night while on the road, air level, put out the slides and never leave the coach. The coach is comfortable to drive and after a short period of adjustment the length is not a problem, neither my wife nor I have had any problems on the road and we have worked out hand signals to make backing into large campsites easy. The maintance costs are about $1k a year unless you do it all yourself. If you need to go cheaper get a 5th wheel, diesels require maintenance to last more than 200k miles.

It has been a great RV to drive. It has been stored in a garage when not in use. We spent the winters in Florida both Key Largo and Fort Myers. The storage is plenty full with slide trays for easy access. We also have a freezer or refrigerator on a slide under the rv for extra storage.

A really comfortable RV to stay in with excellent driving and towing.Beautiful coach, Woodwork and cabinets are awesome. Very well built coach.The best made RV in the industry - American Coach.

I have enjoyed this RV very much. It is a quality built unit. My husband enjoyed driving it but due to health issues we are having to sell. I am sad because I love camping with my friends and making new friends.

I bought new and have owned 5 pushers over the years. This is the best of all. Love the freightliner chassis, much shorter turning radius. Selling because of age and have been all over the US. Would sell tow car as well . 2016 Lincoln MKT with 40k and still under warranty. Great live ability .

We are the second owners of this Tradition 42F. We have lived in it full time for over 2-1/2 years. We love the floor plan and particularly the full wall slide which creates a truly open feel from front to back. We feel the interior finishes are far better than other products in the market and feel the same about exterior paint quality. After nearly 10 years in service it still looks almost new. Mechanical issues are there just like any other product, but the factory service center(s) are good to work with. We have a strong owners group that has the attention of the key corporate people. I would be very hard pressed not to by another American Coach.

I have owned this RV for 15 years and have not had any serious problems with it. It drives exceptionally well and pulls a tow just as well. It is also very serviceable - can get to most points. I would recommend this coach to anyone.

I have owned this unit for 3 years and have had no problems what so ever,very well made coach.

I am very familiar with this make and model RV. It's one of the most comfortable RVs you will operate. It's style and setup is timeless. You will not be stuck with a gaudy look that you would regret down the road. I personally have been in this RV and love it!

We purchased our 2001 American tradition about one year ago. To-date we've put approx. 4000 miles on it and absolutley love this coach. The exterior and interior are in perfect condition and it rides and drives great. I would recommend an American coach, new or pre-owned to anyone interested in a diesel big rig.

This coach is not only great to drive, you'll enjoy all the attention you'll get as you cruise down the road. Many upgraded features generally found in the American Heritage were added to this coach for all the comfort you could ask for while traveling and at your destination. This is a motorhome you'll just love.
