This was a BIG deciding factor for me. I originally wanted slide but after shopping and seeing them in, I quickly changed my mind about a 'slides r us' MH.
All depends I guess on how much you travel with the RV. I full time so a lot of time 'traveling' on the road. When I stop at a rest area to use MY bathroom, get a sandwich, take a nap on the bed, or to get a sweater out of a closet.....I want to be ABLE to do so!!!
I looked all the way up to the top end of the A's with slides and all of them blocked the usage of most of these areas. More slides, equaled even less access. :(
My advice on this is if you are looking at RV's with slides, especially if they are at a dealership MAKE them CLOSE all the slides.
Every salesman I encountered came up with 10 different reasons why they couldn't close them for me. Ya right. :R
They have them all open and don't want to close them because on most on them it seals off access of the entire MH!
It was a hard requirement for us to be able to live in the RV with the slide closed. We just got back form a month on the road and about half the time we didn't even bother putting it out.
