We tend to temp fate by " Driving on the wrong side" as well :B

Why can't the US manufacturers make interiors like this? The color schemes and plushness, if that's a word, in the Asuie unit are beautiful.

Robert, I know that, from past references, you have regs on the rear overhang. What kind of pin weights do you see on these smaller FWs, since the axles tend to be much further back, compared to U.S. FWs? Do the mfrs weight them to the tail to help compensate for otherwise heavy pins?

I =still= love that fully independent off-road suspension, though! :-)

Good question. I really do not have an answer. I was looking at a manufacturer called Winjana RV , who make some " rustic" looking mainly Off Road very lightweight 5th Wheelers.

Some of the streets and highways I've drove on lately probably needs that 'Off Road' suspension! lol's
