The wife and I have been seriously considering the 2008 HR Endeavor 36PDQ (Monaco twin - Diplomat 36PDQ). I'm pretty keen on the 400 Cummins and the RR8R. She, really likes the interior with the Ultraleather, airbed, and tile all through to the door. The only thing that has us a little hesitant is the size of the shower stall. I know the time spent in the shower is only a brief moment in time, but neither of us are tiny tots and the shower sure does seem small compared to the corner shower we have now.

Parking on our property limits us to nothing longer the the 36PDQ or we would jump at the 40.

Does anyone have experience with this model coach and if so would you mind sharing your experience?

Can't help you with that particular model as we have the 40PAQ, but I can give you same sage advice. If you do choose to go with the full tile flooring, if possible, also go with the aqua hot system. We didn't order ours and was manufactured with the full tile floor but without the aqua hot system. On cold days/nights, that tile gets very cold and serves to cool down the whole rig. Even with a 6x8 foot area rug in the living room area, it's still cold.

Good luck in your decision!!

Interesting observation about the full tile and Aquahot. The coach we have in our sights is already on the lot, with standard heat (no Aquahot) and as we all know dealers are attempting to reduce inventory with slow sales being the norm by offering some pretty good deals. So I guess this will be a topic for discussion with the wife.

Looking at the sticker, it lists "Auxiliary Blower" as an option, but I can't find a reference to it in the brochure. Just what is the auxiliary blower?

We have the 36, it is fine. We had the corner shower in our Vacationer, but the one in the Endeavor is fine. We are not tiny tots either, like you said you do not spend alot of time in there, shower and out.

Extra fans and outlets to defrost the windshield. You should be able to see outlets on the upper front cabinets..
