What are the down sides of the 1992 Barth Breakaway 30' Spartan Chassis? Do they have air ride or springs?

If the 92 is like my 94, it has springs. Check out my latest tech posting for an interesting spring story.

We have a 92' and it just springs but the brackets are there if you wanted to put in air-ride assist. I don't think there is anything wrong with the chassis. As you will hear from alot of people they think the 5.9 cummins is under powered for the coach. It is not a race car but it will get you where you want to go and with pretty good mileage for a motorhome.
