Here we are in sunny Florida after making our way south from Virginia. Our new Fleetwood Storm (28ms) is all we had hoped it would be from a "live in" standpoint. It has much more storage than our fifth wheel and opens up the floor space for moving about.
Milage was pretty much what we expected, around 7.5. The only surprise was handling. I posted on the Ford F53 forum concerning my issues with it.
All in all we are very pleased with our purchase and look forward to many miles of "blissful" motorhoming.

Enjoy Florida, we have so far.  Hope whatever handling issues are resolved as well.

Can you tell us what length and year Ford chasis you have?
You should have a 5 year warranty on your Ford chasis so take it to your Ford Truck repair facility and let them handle this problem.
