Considering going from a TT to FW

kep5niner, My dealer also sells Wildcat. Recently while discussing the wide usage of Lippert frames throughout the industry, he stated that FR had started their own in-house frame shop. The Wildcat is the first FR product to get it. If you aren't already aware of this; it may be something to consider when looking at model years. He talked like they were already using the new frame on 2015 models. I don't know if that is good or bad but if there were frame warranty issues, you would only have to deal directly with FR. He also mentioned that Wildcat made a lot of changes to upgrade features for 2015. Another consideration is all remaining 2014's will be 2 yrs old in about 3 months; but that may also mean there are deals if you can find one.

I know the 2015 does have a BAL frame, calling it a NXG frame for 2015. Their literature references a new paint/powder coat system, and visually I can see that the frame design affords more pass-through storage in the 2015 vice the 2014. I think the 2014 is still a BAL, which is the same as my KZ. I have read that Lippert is a four-letter word around here... I never want to pass up more storage, but are far from full-timing, so our cargo would not be too excessive, and limiting storage volume would encourage us not to overpack.
