Discussion resulting from (Re: Questionnaire for New Model)

I suspect the survey is based on FT building a diesel pusher on a Spartan chassis, which would not drive that well under 36'.

I would have liked them to go smaller and it seems that the foretravel owners I have talked to would want tht as well. I know another owner looking under 32 feet today in fact.

I found an older 33' Grand Villa gas and wanted a diesel but couldn't find anything smaller than 36' with diesel. The reason that I got the 33' was that was the shortest I could find with a rear queen.  I'm not happy with the shower, and would prefer the shower on the other side of the hall and the toilet/sink together with another foot of walk around space in the bed room. I'm going to call mine a "camper" because it can't compare with the newer 36' to 45' MegaCoaches.

split discussion that wasn't questionnaire-related out to this topic.  Please use this topic if you're not specifically discussing Foretravel's Motorcade Club questionnaire

12 questions, really? My general impression was that they are not serious about building a smaller coach.

For those who aren't MC club members, would it be possible to share the questions (or at least the gist of them)?

I would have taken the survey IF I could have logged in to the MC site.
