These are nice small diesel pushers. Smaller, lower, and more compact. Easy to park and drive. Nice quality and appointed.

The downside is limited towing capacity given the smaller engine, chassis, brakes, etc

My father in law sells tiffin at mike Thompson’s . I was really excited about it but he quickly shut that down. 2012 could only tow about 4000 lbs. current is 5000 I think. What he told me is you pay all the Dp price but without all the benefits.

Isn't that a Navistar engine? I've heard horror stories.

those had a long list of problems... low power is the least...there's also a few years that the furniture pealed real bad... they had a problem with the front being too light and they would porpoise

I love the idea of a smaller DP, but in the tiffin family I would look towards the Phaeton 36GH or 36QSH to get a fullsize chassis and the 8.3 cummins

The early year models, especially the 28 had an issue with proposing.

But the recent year models and the upgrade to the cummins engines really improved these coaches

I'd look into a mid 90s to 2000s Country Coach. Way underrated but way over built diesel pusher. I would like to have a 32' one day.

If navistar RUN-FAST
If 6.7 it is under powered
The older country coaches are a VERY underated coach

All of this is just IMO

The Breeze is a niche diesel pusher.

Lower, narrower, lighter, etc than a traditional DP.

It's not for everyone but a really nice small DP that is easier to park, maneuver, etc. And gets pretty good MPG for an RV

Can you outline when/what was changed?

Seems like a nice next step from a Class A gasser if limited on space. We currently have a 31’ and can only go a few feet longer and still park it at home. Thanks!

2020 went from bad motor ( 5.0 same as nissan ) to the 6.7 ( most mfg diesel of the last 20 years ) - 275 HP/500fpt to 340hp/700fpt. It's 11'8" to the top, 33.5 ft long, ladder to front. Sleeps 4 , 1 king, 1 queen, 16mpg cruising - this is the same cummings in most school buses, med duty trucks, so cheap to maintain, dependable - allison 2500 behind it custom rated so they match up perfectly. i need to be under 12'5" to get inside my building, and most are 12'10", so this is the one that litterly fits. Only other comp is a Newmar New Aire at about $200 MORE.

Just stay away from the early maxforce international engines and try to find a 6.7 Cummins.
