Covid coach

[Dakota1]

Does anyone have any information about a 31L5C ? Currently looking at one but not sure if we want to take a chance with a Coach that was manufactured during the pandemic. Apparently the chassis is lighter and holds 2500 less weight. The wheels were changed to 19.5 from 22.5. How much of a difference does the tire size effect the ride ? Thx for any help.

Seems from what I read on this site and others, pre-COVID, COVID, and post-COVID, most all have similar defects and complaints. Just the nature of the business. Roll the dice and take your chances.

Covid coach claims are bs. All years will have some problem coaches. If you are unsure, hire an inspector to go through it
No idea what a 31L5C is.
Tire height will change your speedo reading and you will want to check for rubbing or the tires bottoming out when hitting bumps

Covid coach claims are bs.

I'm starting to see more and more of this sentiment.

The internet is fickle. All it takes is a few sensational posts (YouTube is perhaps the most full of BS in this regard) and the unsubstantiated claims become perceived as fact.
