2008 Winnebago 39z

[Mike Sheahan]

Good morning. We are seniors considering our first diesel pusher. Have found a 2008 Journey 39z clean well cared for. Any particular problems we should be aware of? Any reason we should avoid purchasing this year or model. We would very much appreciate your comments.

EGR exhaust gas recirculation) system started in 2007 and later models. 2010 and on is DEF Diesel exhaust fluid) which is better and gives better economy. There is nothing wrong with EGR, just that now there is a better system available.
I personally love the 39Z models.

Thanks Edmond for taking the time to reply. We did purchase the Journey and are pleased with it. Think it was a good choice for us. A word of caution to those purchasing a used coach from a dealer; check them out, make notes of every discussion, and prior to paying make sure all items promised have been taken care. We were disappointed in our dealership and hold them in very low regard.
