Like the paint job!
Don't all of these also have a steel-sprung front end, as opposed to the air bags on DPs?
Engine access is another big plus for these rigs, as is the fact that the entire chassis and cab is built by the same manufacturer--kind of like a Prevost.
yes, most are (2 leaf) front sprung & air ride rears, all have 4 point hydraulic levelers.
I've heard one (here) call it a refrigerator paint job - but imo (and I'm bias) it doesnt age (or fade) - its a bit industrial sure, but that also keeps most thieves away...campers are always curious to know "what is that" or is it a "toy hauler" - theyre often surprised when they see the inside (i don't know why or what they think is in side (cardboard boxes) !?!? or milk crate seats ?
i see a lot of folks say claim that the ride is (or must be) rough - but i wonder if any of them have ridden in one...cause min isn't....yes its firm but no where near rough.
their frames are purpose sourced/build from the HD Truck industry, not modified - so the slides are generally deeper....although it seems pushers have caught up to the larger / deeper slides.
at the same time only in the past couple of years has there been a demand for 4 & 5 slide Truck Conversions.
