I owned a 2002 Class C Gulfstream prior to purchasing the 2009 Challenger. I never had an issue with the Gulfstream outside of normal maintenance. The Challenger, however, has been a constant "challenge" since I purchased it nearly 14 years ago. I have had electrical problems with the Inverter as well as the Battery Command Center, which was replaced after six years. . To this day, I always turn on the generator before shutting off the engine if I need to stop somewhere on the road because I never know if it will restart if I don't. I also carry a portable battery jump starter with me. The rear bedroom flat screen TV was replaced 3 times before I got one that worked. The main Samsung TV in the living room had to be replaced after 5 years. The living room slide-out motor burnt out after three years. After ten years, the driver and passenger windows had to be replaced because of leakage. And now my steps will not retract. I read all the glowing reviews about the Challenger and wonder how I managed to get such a lemon. Like a boat, I will love it the day I drove it home and the day I finally get rid of it. Show less

This rig is very large width wise and very comfortable to live in and drive. It has every convenience possible even an electric dump. It is very easy to set up once you are partked since it has both hydraulic and air leveling systems. We tow a Jeep grand Cherokee and you don’t even know it’s behind the motorhome. With 500 HP you can go up the hills easily and two engine brakes makes dissent trouble free. If you call American coach and give them the Vin number they are more than glad to help you and send any part you may need. Show less

This is one of the best coaches on the road! From the look inside and out and the drive ! Great job from American Coach ! I will be continuting to own American Coach just because they have the best coach on the road Show less

This American Eagle is the third motorcoach that we have owned in the last sixteen years. The first two were County Coach Intrigues, which were extremely high end quality coaches. We switched to the American Eagle when CC sold out and the company developed financial problems. The Eagle is equal in high end hardware and overall quality. Factory support is strong and accommodating. The Eagle's full wall slide, along with the largest width slide outs make the Eagle very spacious and more livable. Show less

We have had problems with our RV. Most were with sub-systems like the furnace, generator, A/C etc. Our RV had problems with the slide related to poor construction. One of the seat belt bolts fell into the slide track and it kept failing. Did not confirm this until after warrenty was out. Company paid for 1/2 of cost. Roof was not sealed properly and it leaked after two years casuing the side to delaminate. Poor quality control and/or design. Don't think this company is any worse than the rest of the industry. RVs made in the us are not high quality and the sub-system companies are even worse. Show less

It had a few bugs new, but all repaired by myself under warranty, except I had too add a extra battery @ my expense. OEM tires were junk. Show less
