When Open Range was a stand alone company they produced decent innovative RV's.
More importantly they stood behind here product.
Now that Open Range has been purchased by Thor the innovation and support is gone.
Yes there are lots of rigs with structural issues. I have a 2012 that has had major structural repairs I know of a 2014 with the same issues and there are lots of others.
The real issue with Open Range is not the structural defects but its the lack of support from the manufacturer.
During these mega buyouts the buyer, Thor takes all the reputation and goodwill from a company but accepts none of the liabilities for the company. Something about the whole arrangement is deceitful and should be illegal.
As an Open Range owner I have seen the company go down hill over the last few years and I do not recommend one buy into the Open Range mess.
