Sorry I just got caught up reading the list. I've been reading the C list mostly.
The FW Siesta has been a great buy. The double slides give a lot of size and the option to open both or one. You must level up the motorhome before using the slides. Speaking of leveling my TL 235 had a leak at the slide out when parked off level. This eventually damaged the carpeting and subflooring before I figured out the leak. The problem was with the slide side "higher" the water flowed down to the passenger side dinette, forward box seat. I wasted a lot of time looking on the passenger roof, etc.
The Siesta model I have is the 24BB. I don't think it is made anymore. I have the Ford 450 Super Duty chassis. We like the Chevy floor space better but this 26 foot model didn't come with Chevy as an option. The Ford has plenty of torque we tow a 2007 Honda CR-V about 3400 pounds and don't notice it.
You made the right choice passing on that unit. If the dealer has no pride in the repair to sell the unit how will they treat you after the sale.
I think the Lexington has a model much like our Four Winds Siesta. Also Dutchmen I think.
