Thor v Forest River
I have been researching and looking at GAS Class A's for a little over a year, and am ready to move ahead. I have narrowed down to two floorplans that meet my requirements. I know all RVs have good and bad issues. I am looking for information to help decide between Thor Challenger 37KT and Forest River Georgetown 378TS. To stay in my price range, I will be buying something in the 2012-2015 model years. I will be purchasing in the next 6 months (hopefully) and beginning to live in it full time in about a year.
Between the two, what do you know about the manufacturer's build and sturdiness? Do either of them or Ford have a "bad year" I would need to avoid? Both seem to have same chassis, so it really is going to come down to the MH part of the rig. At what point, should I figure major appliances (furnace, water heater, etc) become an issue.
I guess I just need to know that I am not making a huge mistake in choosing one of these, basing my decision on the floorplan that I think I can live with for a long time.
