Another thing to consider is Thor and Forest River class C's are considered below the average for quality, so the depreciation will be higher than say a Phoenix Cruiser, Nexus RV or Winnebago in like sizes.
My suggestion is to wait and find something used in a couple years....
Thanks. Thor and Forest River is what was available at this show for Class C. Will see what I can find to see in person on the other brands.
Phoenix Cruiser – A whole different price range and availability limited…..
Nexus – Smaller manufacturer, a little higher price range, not widely available through dealers
I would rank Forest River with the Winnebago, on quality and over-all construction.
You original question of Thor or Forest River, I would say Forest River due to fiberglass roof and fit and finish inside.
You all need to decide the type of traveling & camping:
Class C's easier to travel distances (able to move around as travel)
Class C's more investment (unless you are having to buy new tow vehicle, also)
Yes, RV shows can be a dangerous place to visit!
