Hi Gang,
We traded our '04 Winnebago BRAVE for a 2007 41' Safari Cheetah SFD diesel pusher last week. We've got most of the bugs out so far and are permantly living in it. We retired in May and are trying to stay in the warmer climes.
We deffinately like more space and storage. We also love the ride on the Roadmaster RR8R chassis. I'm not white knuckling it on the curves and my wife isn't gritting her teeth anymore. (much) 
The full slideout on the roadside is great. It also gives us an island bathroom.
We are currently in the process of finding just the right places for everything we had in the other MH. We're getting close. Now it's time to kick back and enjoy.

Hey, thanks all. Yup there are things that are different all right. Some were better in the old one and some are better in the new one. I feel that we made the right choice though.
Now where did I put that razor.....?
