Today’s Rig Ready inspection had us checking out a 2016 Tiffin Phaeton 40AH — and this one brings a whole lot of coach to the inspection! 🚍🔍
The Phaeton has long been one of Tiffin’s most popular diesel pushers. In fact, Tiffin called the 2016 Phaeton its bestselling model and one of the top-selling Class A motorhomes in the industry. (Tiffin Motorhomes)
Fun facts about the 40AH:
🔹 About 41 feet of rolling home
🔹 Four slide-outs for some serious living space
🔹 A 380-horsepower Cummins diesel paired with an Allison 6-speed transmission
🔹 And depending on how it was equipped, amenities could (and on this one did!) include Aqua-Hot hydronic heating, a residential refrigerator, central vacuum, washer/dryer, fireplace, dishwasher, and more. (Legacy Coach)
At 10 years old, this Phaeton is a great example of why a detailed inspection matters. A beautiful coach can look fantastic at first glance, but our job is to look past the shine and evaluate the systems, components and condition you don’t necessarily see during a walk-through.
Because when your potential new home-on-wheels is more than 40 feet long, there are a lot of places for Tom and Victoria to go looking for trouble. 😂🔎
