Damon Daybreak vrs Holiday Rambler Admiral

The HR is far superior and if the floorplan is good and there are no water leaks that would be my choice without a doubt.

The HR is in amazing condition. No water leaks. Nice paint and graphics. Although they are both in excellent condition the Damon did have a small leak that the dealer fixed.

Here is my pros and cons lists

Damon Pros
11k miles
Like new condition throughout
shower that fits me
good layout of toilet
Has inverter installed
under 10 years old
nice layout
Brand new graphics



Damon Cons
Had leak at passenger side window (near DW seat). Has been fixed but its only new once.

19.5 inch wheels
house batteries are 12V marine batteries
rubber roof
lesser build quality
plastic faucets
plastic/fiberglass shell on outside of camper
blinds not day/night type


HR Pros

aluminum doors for basement storage
Basement storage doors open sideways
big bathroom
22.5 inch wheels
nicer build quality
Convection micro wave
14k miles
aluminum roof!!
metal faucets
wife likes the interior colors
3 slides
nice drivers compartment
Aluminum skin on sides of camper instead of a plastic shell
Excellent paint and graphics


HR Cons
price is a little higher
Toilet is in a closet
Shower is a little smaller than the Damon

Seems like you answered your own question. HR more 'Pros' then the Damon and less 'Cons' then the Damon.

Seems like your deal breaker is toilet/shower?

Look below the 'surface' at build quality. How long do you plan on keeping it? Typically HR builds a better unit.

The aluminum roof jumps out! Owned a HR travel trailer + loved it. Very well constructed. Usually great storage. Don't worry about small toilet...

Hands down the HR. The toilet in a closet is a plus for me.

I think another big pro for the HR is that it has a hung wall which can't delamiate like a vacuum bonded or pinched rolled wall. What chassis is on each MH?

The toilet in the closet would be a plus if the closet was a little bigger. I think it was sized for short people under 200 pounds and that aint me. I will figure out a way to make it work because the coach seems a lot nicer and seems like it will last longer.
