We had and sold an '08 Eurocruiser with the V-10. It pulled pretty good but slowing it down coming off the mountains out here was a bit of a thrill on the long 6% grades. We got around 8mpg and it handled well and would stop on a dime on normal roads. A little noisey in the front seats from the doghouse but a nice performer overall.

Is 50,000 miles a lot on a V10 should I even consider a used motor home with that much mileage when both me and my husband are totally non mechanical?
