You may want to consider the 2009 Fleetwood Bounder Diesel as it comes equipped with the PowerBridge Chassis, a variant of the American Coach/Revolution Liberty Chassis using Freightliner modules versus the Liberty's Spartan clips. You'll likely experience a smoother, quieter ride from the PowerBridge chassis coach. Also, the PowerBridge allows for flat floor pass-through storage bays. Note that the '09 Bounder Diesel comes equipped with the ISB 340HP/660lb-ft torque engine, versus the '08 Bounder equipped with an ISB 325HP/750lb-ft torque powerplant.


Ditto on the '09 the powerbidge chassis is worth looking into. The storage is much improved.

I would choose another manufacturer. Nuff said.

Well, we looked at them before we bought our 2000 DSDP. Found they were a good value for the price. We paid about $20,000 more for the DSDP than they wanted for the Bouncer. The DSDP was special order and real hardwood cabinets, plus we got a bigger, more powerfull engine (Cat 3126) and the 6 speed Allison rather than the Bouncers ISB and Allison 4 speed. Well worth the difference in our book.
