Hills vs Motorhome

[minds@...>]

Hi All,



I am a proud owner of a 1976 GMC coach . but my style of travel is starting to
change. I tow a heavy FJ-40 Land Cruiser which is about 4200 pounds. I do ok
on moderate hills but the coach feels the strain. It is hard to keep up with
slow traffic and I cringe at the thought of long distant trips with hills. Most
of my travels up to now have been close to home in California and with
retirement closing in I am beginning to look for a more capable motor home.



I was a school bus driver in my youth, so Bluebirds were very familiar. I'm
looking to get info about the 33-36 foot single rear axel coach. What is their
ability to handle the varying terrain of the West while towing and your opinion
on what to avoid in my search for a capable coach?



Thanks for any help
