You overstate the issue and do not give enough credit to the community with a statement like that. The majority of the posts here are productive and complimentary regarding their ownership experience with their Workhorse. But you know that already.

The brakes on my W24 never gave me any trouble and the brakes on my UFO are FANTASTIC!

Chassis wise? The only "complaint" would be that the ride is a little too soft at times. It tends to porpoise when the freeway has "dips" like most of the California roads seem to have now. The UFO has the same motor and trans as my W24 plus 2000 lbs more and the UFO has more power.
Interior changes would be shelves in the cabinets and more drawers in the bedroom.
We are very pleased overall and would certainly buy the UFO chassis again.

More power can be mostly attributed to the fact the UFO uses a lower rear end ration (6.17) than the W24 (5.86) and their is less loss in the UFO drive train attributable to a much shorter drive shaft. BTW, the W25.5 used the same rear end ration (6.17) as the gas UFO. Have you driven a coach built on the W25.5??

I haven't driven a coach built on the W25.5.

Tongue was planted firmly in cheek Driver. I have 30,000 and no brake issues so far. Love the chassis and engine. Closest thing to a diesel that I have tested. Since I can't justify a diesel, I am extremely satisfied.
