I am of a different opinion regarding 34 vs. 36. I find the 34 much more maneurverable. That two feet difference in wheel base makes a big difference to me. I would say one negative on the 34 is down below storage. The 34 has a narrow little joey bed vs the full size on the 36. I'd take either but I'm partial to the 34.

Thanks to everyone that has responded. I decided that a 34' is what I really want. I am not going to be full timing. If I was the 36'or even a 40' be my choice. To be honest a 32' would be enough room for traveling.
The problem with 32' is the handling and towing capacity. 
So I decided to pass on this 36' that is for sale. It was a tough choice because I believe this was a good deal for this unit especially since it was within 2 hours from me.
The good or maybe bad is I am really sold on the quality of FT. I am keeping Country Coach on the list also, but I put the FT first.
Thanks again to everyone who has replied. This board is another reason I am sold on FT.

fletch,

In that case you should consider Eric's 34' coach 2002 34' U270 For Sale (Revised Listing)

I know it is a long way from you but several of us went across country for a coach.

Yea, that's the thing about the 34s. There aren't that many around.

The Foretravel FTX on the Oshkosh chassis is a good rig.  I don't know how short they made them, but the quality is still there.
