We are very pleased with our new Landmark Savannah. Compared all of the rigs, Redwood, DRV, Excel, Cedar Creek, Trilogy, Montana Big Skyand and picked the Landmark.
Some of the reasons in no order were LED lighting inside, got the Yeti package for heated tanks and water line, real wood facia on the slides, got the residential fridge, inverter standard not an option, 22 foot with 2 doors verses 18 or 19 in some others. Also liked the twin 15K air conditioners, quiet and fully ducted verses 1 ducted and the other being a 13.5 with chill grill in some of the others. Samsung smart LED tv's, not LCD's along with a sound bar in front living area and not the cheap overhead speakers. Gives a very good sound. Got dual pane frameless windows on all windows and not just a few as some manufactures do. MCD shades are great compared to the day/night ones. We got the theater seating and it is great. New rigs the seating is electric. Bedroom television is 32" verses 26" in most rigs, along with a built in DVD player.
On the outside the awnings are metal wrapped standard, not option. Also come with a LED light, again standard and like that the light is on the rig under the awning and not on the roller part of awning. This way the light is behind you when setting out, not in your eyes. Also, light can be used when awning rolled up which is nice. Liked that the outside entertainment option was in the slide door and not the underbelly compartment. Again, Samsung LED outside also. With full body paint you get a TPO roof which I wanted verses a EPDM. Correct track suspension is standard, don't remember seeing on others.
The LCI remote is very nice. Can stand with all the slides while they go in/out and watch them, along with front awning and front landing gear. Has the level up system and I haven't saw another manufacturer that has a seperate switch in the front of rig to raise/lower landing gear instead of having to use main controller. Liked the hydraulic back slides and cable front verses the Schwintek system.
Has block insulation which I prefer to batten as I have read of the batten falling down after use and road vibration. Rig is insulated well as we have been under freezing and stayed very warm without the furnace running continuously.
On delivery of rig, only had a few scratches on wood to fix and no other issues. So far very pleased and really like the floor plan.
