Secondly, does anyone EVER remove both radiators for cleaning? Sounds a little strange as these coaches stay on the highway most of the time but possible I guess. What does everyone think?

If you are ordering a new MH and are considering a FL chassis, I believe the 2007 model and newer have an improved oil vapor control system and don't have the problem you're referring to. I agree with the other responses for model years 2004 thru 2006.
I think the Spartan chassis is great but you have moved to a bigger MH and probably a side radiator.
Anyway, keep the radiator and intercooler clean with an annual cleaning, and you'll do just fine either way you decide. There are a number of discussions online regarding this topic. Try RV.Net
BTW, we have a 2004 on a Freightliner chassis.
