New to me Pace Arrow

Got a 2008 Pace Arrow last week. We had a deposit on a Terra 31' and I'm really glad the wife talked me out of it once she found this 35' Pace Arrow. It's a much nicer coach all around and we were going to put some money into the Terra (upholstery, flooring, etc etc) and turns out we paid just $500 more for this coach in the end and don't have to do any work to it. Plus we gained more sqft, better layout, etc.

Better ride with the w series than the p series chassi and much better built inside and out. If you need anything from us Pace Arrow owners don't hesitate to ask. Just remember that preventive maintenance is the name of the game.

I give up, what did you spot that told you the PA is a Workhorse and not a
Ford?

Thanks
Richard

Maybe just maybe I have a PA with a workhorse chassis and maybe just maybe I had a Terra also and the PA with the W24 chassis is exelent.
Does that answer your question?
Or do you need more info?

That PA was built on both Workhorse & Ford chassis. The chassis manufactures labels are usually on the front and the OP's picture does not show the lug nut count. I don't see the normal indicators and was trying to expand my capacity to identify the chassis manufacture. So that's why I ask "what indicators did you see to determine it's a Workhorse"?

You are absolutely correct I was comparing both the Terra and the Pace Arrow on the workhorse because that is what I had and the difference they have in handling between the two models using the same chassis. I have no idea what the difference would be if both had the Ford chassis because I never drove either on Ford. Sorry if I confused you or any other member.

My Pace Arrow is a Ford. My steering wheel gave it away

I just put sumosprings on it and a steering stabilizer. Will do the cheap handling fix next. The Ford chassis seems to need a little help here and there.

Nice coach, looks familiar, good luck. Was it made in PA. I live only a few miles from where that assembly plant was. Let me know I can fill you in on all the things that I have fixed or repaired on my RV. Next project is the gas filler neck. It broke when I was filling it up with one of those stupid gas fillers with the advertisement on it and I forced it into the filler hole broke the plastic that the cap screws into.

I sent you a message. I'd like to hear more about things you've done to yours.
