WHEN YOU DRIVE THIS MOTORHOME AND ATTEMPT TO NEGOTIATE A CURVE, IT IS REALLY HARD TO KEEP THE MOTORHOME IN IT'S OWN LANE. I DRIVE BETWEEN 55-58 MPH.AND SLOW DOWN WHEN I FEEL THE ROAD CONDITIONS WARRANT, THE MOTORHOME FEELS AS IF IT WANTS TO ROLL OVER, I HAVE SPOKE WITH OTHERS WHO SHARE THE SAME CONCERNS. IF YOU GET. E ONTO A ENTRANCE RAMP THAT IS A LOOP, AND THE SUGGESTED SAFE SPEED IS "30" MPH DON'T DO IT, MAYBE 15-20- MPH, I HAVE DRIVEN MANY VEHICLES IN MY LIFETIME AND THIS MOTORHOME SCARES ME. IT IS EQUIPPED WITH 19.5 INCH TIRES, AND THERE IS TO MUCH HEIGHT AND TOP WEIGHT FOR THE TIRES AND SUSPENSION TO SUPPORT ON A STABLE BASE. I HAVE YET TO CRASH BUT I KNOW IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE I CRASH AND BURN. I AM A RETIRED POLICE OFFICER AND I WOULD BE MORE THAN GLAD TO TAKE ONE OF YOUR STAFF FOR A RIDE, AND LET THEM DRIVE SO THEY CAN EXPERIANCE THE AMUSEMENT PARK HANDLING OF THIS MOTORHOME. # OF FAILURES WILL INDICATE TIMES OF UNSAFE HANDLING.THE UNIT IS A GULFSTREAM ENDURA 6340 EH 2 SLIDES. *AK
