      @@kirkdunn1379 very much. Such a narrow few that have any quality to them at all. And the suspension???…..can’t even go there.

    Sorry if I missed it, but have you checked out any Brinkleys?

      @@jsmith0924 yes we have. They are really nice and love the sleek look of the outside….they actually have an all blacked out model. But…..they are so new to the markets that their price is way to high still. Dollars for dollars, even a couple year old Mobile Suites is still built far better and beefier than the Brinkley. Main issue is with those is, you just don’t get that WOW factor when you walk into them.

    Window shop till you drop! Lol. Couldn't agree with you more. Junk, junk and more junk. Imagine if you were the original owners and what they payed for these pieces of crap when they were new! We bought our toy hauler in 2006. A 2004 27ft Rage'N TT. Pretty solid built rig. Several years down the road we knew we wanted a class A. In our travels we managed to stop and talk to the folks in the RV parks who had class A's. Their advice was, stay away from Fleetwood, Winnebago, Bounders and so on. And these were the ones we thought were great. Everyone said to look at Tiffin, Monaco, Country Coach and a few other brands and get a tag axle but don't buy one any older than 2008 as the quality went down hill. We went to all the RV show's around Phoenix looking and we ran into the exact things you just showed. All the newer stuff 2010 and up was just junk! It took a few years then in 2017 we found a for sale by owner 2004 Country Coach 40ft tag axle. Here in AZ you don't pay sales tax from a private seller, another bonus! We payed 80k for a 400k (when it was new) class A. Good things come to those who wait. We've always operated on the principle of... if was meant to be it will be. Hoping you'll find the right one too.

      @@kevinp2820 One way it makes it easier is coming down to just a very few brands. These consistently seem to remain in good condition even with some models being several years old now….so maybe not the bling and wow factor but feel solid and hold up well considering pulling them down the highway is the equivalent of a 24 hour a day hurricane. But the search will continue as just window shopping….
