I've owned an '80 AC camper, '82 Diesel camper, an '88 GL (w/all power
options) and an '89 Bluestar (w/all power options); the comparisons hands
down favor the '86 and up models, with a strong bias towards '89 and newer
versions.  Better brakes, bigger engines, power steering, power options,
more modern interiors...in other words, it's entirely subjective, but
naturally my opinion trumps all others
