'02 360XC and 396XL

[loft47]

looking for feedback on the '02 360 and 396, one of which we will probably buy. any known defects/problems with these units? are the engines large enough to tow a 5,000lb vehicle?

I have a 2003 and love it! The 330 Cat is plenty strong and the coach has a gross carring capacity of 31000 pounds and the wet coach weigh less than 27000 pounds allowing for 4000# of junk that you can carry. My 2003 has a 10,000# Reese hitch (2.5" square) allowing the loaded coach and tow care up to 41,000#. We now tow a Jeep Liberty, but I have friends that tow an F-350 Diesel Ford Crew-Cab with a motorcycle in the bed. Plenty of luxury, power, and reliability with the Freightliner chassis and Airstream Body.
