You could always wait for your Fleetwood motorhome to be made available on an Workhorse R-Series rail with a Cummins engine.

Since Fleetwood has gone "all Cat", we probably won't see an R chassis under a Bounder until WCC offers a Cat powerplant option.

THe Cat is not a 330 HP. it is a 300 HP. I think they are using both Cat and Cummins.

I had a 2003 32' Journey with the 300 HP Cummins and now have a 2003 34' Journey with a 330 Cat. The 34' is heavier and over 40,00 miles avereraged 9.0 mpg, about 0.2 mpg better than the Cummins. I was a Cummins fan, but now prefer the Cat.
