Good article Jon thanks for posting, I continually gripe about working on our coach but every time we dig into the substructure part the coach or the components that support the systems I tip my hat to Newell for building a solid platform for these big rigs. I am not a guru on motor coaches but in auto and aviation I know a good deal in the fabrication department and consider the coach we bought built like an old Douglas DC3. Like every airplane these must have continual maintenance and if it goes without then problems occur, but if I was to have a roll over this would be the one I would do it in, not a head on for sure but a roll over I think if strapped in you should survive.
