We're going on about 1 1/2 years with our Lifestyle and we sure like it. The weight and balance is really nice like the Carriages were. Has it had issues? Oh yeah. Haven't seen an RV yet that hasn't. The fact that the frame is made in house was a huge selling point for us. A visit to the factory reinforced our opinion that we made a good decision on our purchase. We've been RV'ing for 30 years and this is our 3rd 5er.
Make sure you get the 17.5 wheels... PM us if you have any questions...
