All this has been very interesting to read, and I have learned some things I did not know about tag axles. I have never driven a coach with a tag axle, so I cannot comment on the ride. I have driven a lot of motorhomes before buying our first 36' Alpine in 2000. We were so pleased with its ride and drivability that we now have a 07 40' Alpine I am very pleased with the way it handles, unfortunately WRV is now out of business and that chassis is no longer available. I believe that Tiffin is now producing a chassis for its bus that is very similar (designed by the same person who designed the Peck Chassis for Alpine) that was on all Alpine coaches. Tiffin may now have a coach with a tag axle that incorporates the new chassis. I would be very interested to drive that coach. Jim
