Over a period of 10 years I've learned a lot about rv quality. I've had Alfa, Allegra Bay MH, and two Fleetwood Quantums. All of these units are out of business except Allegra. One reason they are probably gone is the lack of quality. What I learned there is only a few companies that are true quality. You can do a search on RV Net and read about them. In 2011 we say our first Carriage product. Even though they are out of business I would not mind buying them. I know very little about Jayco. I've just read they are not up there with Carriage Hitchhiker and etc. However I would buy it before I would buy Dutchman. We use out Cameo for about 5 months out of the year. If you are not going to use it very many months go with a cheaper unit and enjoy. Rvs should be for one majoy purpose. Go and have fun seeing our great nations. USA, and Canada.
