I'm on my second Thor DP, and honestly don't understand the Thor-haters. Of course, most of them have never owned a Thor product, but a friend of a friend's brother-in-law had one, so they know all about them.
Listen, if you hang around this and other RV forums long enough, you'll hear horror stories about every brand, except maybe Newell, Foretravel, and the Prevost-based coaches. I think part of the problem is that Thor owns so many brands, and builds so many coaches, that there are bound to be more problems. I'll admit, though, that I'm sometimes amazed at the things that will slip through "quality control" at the factory. However, that is somewhat balanced by Thor's awesome factory service center in Elkhart, where they will happily go through your coach and make everything right, the way it should have been in the first place.
For my money, both our current Tuscany and our previous Mandalay gave us great "bang for the buck," in comparison to every other coach we looked at (including all the major DP lines under $500k or so). Happy Thor owner here, with no regrets.
