We are looking at a 2004 Damon daybreak 3060, it has the Ford v10 with 19000 miles on it and 900 hrs on the generator. looks like it is pretty good shape, I will know more tomorrow I am going to take a roadtrip to check it out. They are asking 32K for it. It looks like it has all the extras on it. We have had 5th wheels for 20 yrs and thinking of getting a motorhome to do some travling on the east coast. What do you guys think?
Thanks for any input.

We've had an '06 Daybreak (bought it "new" in late '07) for a little over a year now and couldn't be happier. It was our first RV and we just got lucky when we picked it. There are a lot of class A motorhomes out there, with a lot more bells and whistles but the Daybreak does what we want and is very affordable. The Ford V-10 and F-53 chassis have been flawless for 14,000 miles, and the thing passes diesels going uphill with aplomb, even when dragging a motorcycle trailer. We average a little over 7 mpg @ 62 mph.

jam9964, Do you have anything new to report. Did you test drive the MH? Is it at a Dealer or private owner? Either way you could bargain for a better price. Be sure to check everything and know it all works. I really like the V-10. It is our second MH with the V-10. If your are satisfied with the MH, take the leap. John H.... Let us know how you made out.
