Find the floor plans you like in each model. Get a list of components and features of each. Place them side by side and check off the must haves and would likes of each.

Spend time in each one and see which is a better fit. When you find one of each that you like, if you still cannot decide, get them independently inspected, and get fluid analyses. Also compare maintenance records. You should know by then.

oh and definitely test drive each.

While I feel like this is a great answer it's not always feasible, in fact for me the only coach I really found that worked was literally clear across the country. I get that not everyone will be as specific as I was on their needs but with current inventory levels it's still a tough ask.
