It's depressing, yet all too common, that some people would go off subject to criticize a report of an accident. A 32K lb vehicle, of which probably 70% or more of the weight is below the floor line, flips over at a significant speed. The two occupants suffer only minor damages, and because some people don't own that brand of MH or any MH at all, they decide to weigh in on "poor construction". Would they have fared better in another brand MH? A car? I doubt it.

Are we looking at the same picture???? I don't know of ANY motorhome that has any form of roll cage construction. To my knowledge, we are all driving fiberglass with aluminum framing holding it up. If any of our rigs flips, we are in serious trouble. Our walls cannot hold the chassis up!

As I already mentioned BlueBirds were roll over certified.

I guess I should have specified non-bus conversion. School Busses are pretty solid.

I don't consider a Wanderlodge to be a bus conversion. They were purpose-built as a motorhome - not produced as shells and moved over to be converted. They were designed and built from the ground up as a motorhome and never started out as an empty shell that could be used for other purposes. Did they share some components with buses? Yes - particularly in the chassis and frame. They did apply the same principles that were used in building a bus to build an equally solid motorhome, though. But, that's about it.
