Find one that suits you and spouse. Floor plan should be # 1 on your list, then buy the best one that you can afford.

Welcome to the forum. Congrats on the "slow down". I actually retired from medicine 15 years ago and have never looked back.

One coach line you have left off your list is Tiffin. Take a serious look at the Allegro Bus series. Still family owned and the post deliver service is second to none.

You are joining a good group of folks here with good information to share. Read the various threads here and ask questions as they come up and add information if you can.

Good luck on the search and enjoy the adventure!

Welcome from LaGrange GA!

Glad you are here! You'll get a lot from this forum and will meet fellow RVers and have some enjoyable communitcation.

All the makes you mention are impressive. Just my own opinion and others may disagree but I am not a fan of Thor products
