Let me say that my 39 footer (no tag) is about perfect for us. I have plenty of basement storage that isn't even being used (maybe I could rent you some?). A slide or 2 would be nice but we don't have a problem not having any. One of the best things about a coach is if it's not nice outside- move!
We've only run into 1 state park that was very tight, actually the problem was the dip while pulling out of the spot. We've seen quite a few campgrounds that would be pretty tight for a 45'. While I'd love to have a series 60 with 6 speed, etc. the old 8v92 runs great, just needs a little more maintenance and care. And the price jump is pretty significant.
The only problem with a coach under 40' is that Newell didn't make enough of them.
I'm sure some of the guys with 45 footers will chime in. I'd be interested in hearing their experiences.
