structural warranty
The Competition• Single welded, aluminum only in walls, wood floors joist, wood rafters - heavier,
one year warranty • No aluminum around openings - walls flex, causing broken seals and leak points• Pinch rolled lamination with 1 lb foam - less pressure and contact time -
delamination & flexing • Wood makes the coach heavier, more susceptible to mold, mildew, rot and VOC off-
gassing• Others use inexpensive fiberglass that is thinner, not as smooth & is susceptible to
fading & chalking• Others are less aerodynamic, boxy, and square, get lower gas mileage, less
attractive, more chips and dents• Smaller windows let in less outside air and light - coach is darker and more stuffy in
warmer weather
The Competition• Use shorter awnings to cut costs, less protection from sun and weather• Fresh water tank placed under bed, adds more weight on tongue and takes away
storage space under bed• 76 or 78-inch ceiling height, lower, more enclosed feeling• Wood pass through with unfinished look that is dark, wood less durable than
aluminum and can rot, mold or mildew• Hard to access under bed storage without struts to hold up bed frame• Foam mattress less like residential and not as comfortable to sleep on• No skylight - darker interior• Stapled cabinetry loosens over time, joints split and cabinet flexes when opened -
not residential or durable• Non-ball bearing drawer guides - stick, warp, don't slide well with weight in drawer• Smaller refrigerator means less food storage
The Competition• Electric water heater only, can’t heat water if no electricity available• Traditional linoleum, cracks under extreme cold, feels cold to walk on• Cable-driven guides can snap and break and don't close as squarely and tightly as
gear-driven slides• Black pipe is heavier and adds more weight to coach, susceptible to rust, fittings
installed on production line• Smaller A/C units will not cool the coach as efficiently• Non-adjustable hangers are at a fixed height and may bottom out on two tracks or
potholed, bumpy roads• Bias-ply tires inexpensive, harden when cold, heat up when towing, wear out faster• Warranty not as good, break down problems on the road or campsite will cost
more money during the first year
