Motor Home Cummins 400

[WBlackburn]

I am looking real hard at buying a class A motorhome. (crazy with diesel prices as they are) Both of the coaches that I am looking at (Monoco, Diplomat and the Allegro Bus) both have the cummins 400. Any one that may have one or know about them, information would be appreciated. Does the 400 cummins have the poop to get that monster down the road OK. What kind of milage can I expect? Also if anyone has any advise or information on any other coaches, ideas or suggestions, IM open to learning much, much more. Have had 5th wheels for years, pulled by my trust dodge. Have 286K on my ole 92 and 56K on my 01.

If it's the ISM 400 then it is bullet proof. I know it will move a 37,000 lb. Fire Engine down the road like a rocket.
