Care for RV Graphics and Decals

I am having all graphics replaced (Montana paid) on my 2008 Montana 2955RL due to graphics peeling off. The problem is the mixed results you hear for caring for the new graphics. One dealer says definitely wax, another says NEVER wax just apply 303 Aerospace. Anybody out there have a good answer to this oft debated topic. I searched forums and got no results.
No need to post about just getting rid of graphics, wife told me NO!

RE: Need Help with Exhaust Brakes in Virginia

Just to clarify 2003 could be either a 7.3 or a 6.0 correct?
Good point. I have the 7.3L which is why I do not want to get another truck!

Need Help with Exhaust Brakes in Virginia

I have a 2003 Ford F350 SRW 4x4 Crew Cab 7.3L Diesel with automatic transmission. I am towing a 12000 lb 5th wheel so near the towing limit. When towing in mountains, I have experienced brake problems. Looking to install an exhaust brake. Local mechanic has never done one, so I am looking for adice on exhaust brake choice and if there is someone in Southeast Virginia anyone is aware of that can install. Unfortunatley with an suto tranny, I am also going to need to lock out the torque converter as well, based on what I have read. Any advice appreciated.

2008 Coachmen Wyoming 338rlqs vs 2008 Montana 2955RL

OK, we own a 2088 Montana 2955RL. Unfortunately for me, my wife wants a bigger unit. We met a couple with a 2008 Coachmen Wyoming 338RLQS that wants to downsize. Pictures show a near perfect condition unit. My Montana is near perfect except minor peeling on graphics.
It appears all I lose is the electric awning, and electric rear jacks. I have not seen their unit, but will this Sunday. Anybody want to chime in on whether this is smart? I will have to pay some cash since their unit is valued more. Wholesale to wholesale shows an 8K difference.
Big advantage to me is wife gets bigger unit at same weight! I have 2003 F350 SRW 7.3L I do not want to give up. Max 5ver tow is around 14000 lbs, and others she is looking at are over 15k lbs which means another truck. Skipping the 6.0 puts me at a much newer truck and lots of money. Why can't she stick with what we got (no need to comment on this).
