Coachmen Pathfinder 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

For an entry into the 40ft diesel pusher world this RV has been excellent. Easy to drive. 2 slides are larger width than other similar models. Layout and sleeping for 4 adults and 1 child is convenient to set up. Reliable Cummins engine and Allison power train. 300Hp may seem low but coach is not real heavy at 26,900 lbs so gets 11 mpg towing at 62 mph. Rides well at 60-62mpg and rides up steep hills OK, kicking down to 5th gear and rarely to 4th gear. Attractive 4 color scheme gets some nice looks and easy to spot among common RV beige. We added a rugged spray-on front "linex" cover to prevent stone chips vs having that 3m plastic coating that fades and cracks after 5 years. Unit is very serviceable by Cummins and other more general RV service shops. All parts are readily available from OEM suppliers. Show less

I have one that I am trying to sale as well. Great Rv. The I owned does not have a slide on it. Same color an paint job. I can say that its a great unit to have. Once you own one you be willing to drive the unit a lot. Show less

We purchased the Pathfinder in Texas and drove it back to Alaska. It is a dream to drive and the bigger 400hp Cummins made easy work of the many grades and passes. Once both living room slides are out you can't believe the size of the room. The back bath is as roomy as some hotel/motel rooms. We had a problem with the small awning over the door. Once back in Alaska Forest River authorized a full replacement with no questions asked. The coach is not as fancy as some of the more expensive coaches, however, it is well built, extremely comfortable, easy to drive and is very very nice. Show less

We have enjoyed living in this coach,it has everything you need for fulltime living or long weekends, it has lots of storage and the floorplan is excellent.It drives and rides great and has the power to go anywhere and tow anything you want. Show less
