harry,
my 90 now belongs to bill who is on this forum. it was a much simpler coach, but the ride and driving was very similar. i kept it up and did lots of preventative replacements and yet bill has had to fix things. that is the nature of the beast. my 02 systems are much more complicated. lots of relays, lots more airlines, compressors, water pumps, and on and on. slided throw in another complexity. i would venture to say most of us hold our breath when we put our slides in or out hoping not to have problems.
i loved both and tried my best to talk bill out of buying the 90, but that didnt work.
there is more costs in having the newer coach.
plates are more, more tires, more batteries, more complicated systems with more expensive parts, etc.
if i have slide problems i will probably buy a forklift, fly richard and jimmy in and have a slide fixing week. probably wouldnt be much more than driving to newell to have it done.
