If you're satisfied with your current Itasca, buy another Winnebago product. You'll be trading down on quality going from a Winnebago to a Thor. Good luck!
Excuuuse me!?
I've traveled with my friends in their Winnebago for a couple of years going to sporting events. Which is what prompted me to look at 'other' manufacturer's when it came time for me to buy my own MH.
My main concern was wanting to buy one that used REAL solid wood for the cabinets and drawers that were built on REAL solid wood and metal slides. And an interior that was made with QUALITY materials.

X2!
If you ever want to know what MH stands up best? go to a sporting event. Not like the races either. One where it is the RV'ers 'hobby'. these units are driven hundreds of thousands of miles, used excessively/abused compared to the weekend camper. Rode hard and put away wet only to do it again the following weekend 12 months a year! And when they go to buy a new one their used one is sold to another hobby member to use for yet another go around.
You will find that 8 our of 10 Class C MH's parked at any given event is a Thor. Just saying. Built well with quality materials and holds up to the test of time when used excessively.
Do you own a Thor? If so, what model?
