We love the DEQ floor plan. The only reason we went with Anthem over Aspire is to avoid buyer's remorse.

I agree with TxBart& DSL... we love the DEQ floor plan. We previously owned a Monaco and were very happy with the coach. I must say our Aspire has met or exceeded our expectations.. If you can make the move, now is the time, they aren't getting any cheaper!! Good luck.

I have an Aspire 42DEQ....and we think it's the best floorplan for us. We moved from another brand's 40 footer (non-tag axle) coach. You will lose just a bit of basement storage due to the tag and the Aqua Hot and the size and location of the propane tank. You might gain a bit of interior storage though. You may use a bit more water per flush over the gravity type toilets (this one has an electric/macerator toilet. Also, ENTEGRA plumbs the lavatory basins to drain into the black tank, so when dry camping, wash hands in the kitchen to maximize the black tank space.

Now...I may not own and Entegra but I do worry that it might be too much of a TV set up for you to handle. LOL (Private joke folks!)

OK...After meeting you and hearing some of your current issues, I think you would have a blast in any new coach and the Aspire would be a very nice choice. I certainly would think about that kind of move before you get too deep into updating what you have which, BTW, ain't shabby.

LOL! Well after talking that genie talk, I think we might actually USE this TV Plus the positioning is so much nicer - we shall see what happens. If I could find a buyer for my coach real fast... that would be pretty killer.
