Why do you feel a vented attic is so important? Dozens of folks full time in all sorts of RVs, most of which are not vented. BTW adding a attic vent is a pretty simple procedure.

Uh wernt they trying to sell you their brand? So you believe them why? They probably also told you that you can safely tow any of their fivers with a 2500 truck too?
Learn some truths before you go shopping. Number one salesmen will lie to make a sale. Number two if a salesmans lips are moving he is likely lying.

BTW your close enough you really should go visit Northwood MFG and take a tour of a real quality mfg.
