Thor Acquires K-Z

FYI....KZ is a much better built unit then any Thor product. KZ was still a family owned business run by its founder. It was one of only 3 offering a 2 year warranty. I had a major problem with my Durango and the factory repaired the delam and replaced the entire roof after the warranty was over and didn't charge me a cent. Read the posts of Thor declining claims on 1 month old units. If you ever toured facilities in Elkhart you would agree that KZ was a much better unit and a better run company caring about its dealers and end users.

You guys crack me up. All through this site everyone touts their brand and makes recommendations to those asking and a good majority of those are RV's built by company's under the Thor umbrella. Keystone which by the way includes the Montana, Heartland, Crossroads and even the Airstream TT. I'm thinking maybe KZ was needing some $$ to grow and keep up with the demand for the business. Most of the time nothing changes it remains business as usual except they now have more $$ for growth.

what a shame

We are happy with our '08 Montego Bay. Was looking at others but decided to keep what we've got

Pitiful! KZ made a nice line of products. Seems I recall Thor acquired Crossroads and we know what has happened to them, too. Sorry to hear this. Phillip

Being out of the travel trailer sphere for a very long time, I'm not familiar with these names or their levels of quality.

I really hope the KZ name does not down hill because of this ...... That would be a shame

Thor means less quality.

They really have nothing I would be interested in. Especially if they are using Lippert frames. Been there.
