A Hurricane is a Thor. I would not buy any thor product if my life depended on it.
Just my opinion as they are known to be JUNK
Go for a used Winnebago, Tiffin or Newmar
They're not junk, but they're not high end motorhomes either...they are what they are...
What's your budget? I can practically guarantee you won't find one of the three listed above in similar condition for a similar price - that's to be expected.
The best thing you can do is go look at different motorhomes. There are always deals to be found, no need to rush into something without knowing anything about it.
You may not like travelling in a motorhome, you may love it. If you get an expensive one and don't like it, it's a mistake. If you get a low cost one and love it, you upgrade.
I'd expect there are very few people here that are still travelling in their first RV. You have to learn what you like, what you don't like, and often, your needs will change over the years.
Don't be afraid of a Thor product, just understand what they are and have the right expectations. If you bought a Chevy expecting it to have the bells and whistles of a Cadillac, you'd be disappointed, but if you expect it to be equipped like a Chevy, you'd be quite happy.
Look around, go to shows, talk to people. Without knowing your expectations, no one can tell you if it's the RIGHT deal for you.
