Here we go, Thor bashing rekindled. A lot of us Love our Thor products. And I can factually say that EVERY manufacturer has had their share of issues. The Palazzo is a bit of a mess, specifically with the full wall Schwintek slides. But to say all Thor products are bad is simply not true. I have seen first hand issues on FW, Tiffin, Newmar, FR, Winnie, all of them. And as far as quality goes I would challenge anyone to enter any new MH without knowing what brand you are in and tell me the manufacturer. I walked through a Newmar a few weeks ago searching for this holy grail of quality. What I found was loose, faux metal plastic faucets, wall trim coming loose, veneer luann cabinet walls, cheap glides, bubbles in the flooring, etc. The EXACT same quality of every other brand if not worse. Pretty much the same story on the Winnie next to it. Felt better about my Thor upon leaving.
I don't see any bashing. Just a lot of people with unresolved major issues.
Really? things like "run away from all Thor products"??? And it's not just this post, it's pretty much anytime anyone mentions a Palazzo, it becomes a brand issue. I've read the posts. Perhaps you missed them.
I agree. You can't blame the whole Thor line because of Palozzo problems. I was hours away from buying one. I really liked the lay out and to get a DP for that price was tempting. I don't know what's going on with the slide problems. As I understand many other companies are now using the same slide but there's not much talk about issues with them. I believe they are trying to remedy the situation but a lot of damage control will be needed to get buyers confidence back.
