I'll add just one more thing to this thread. My comment was to get the unit with 2 AC units, and here's a good example why.
Here we are on vacation and the front AC on our new to us 2012 Vista died (no cooling). Would be the end of the trip save for the back AC. The MOHO is 33 ft and the AC is 13.5K BTU. Daytime temps here in FL are 85F. Inside temp with 1 AC is 72F.
We will finish our trip and get her fixed. I researched the Coleman RVP units (the one I have) with R410 are not very reliable, lucky me.
It would've been awful to drive 600 miles and have this happen without a backup AC.

My ACE only has one AC and I would echo the statements here. If you travel in hot climates or anywhere that it gets over 90 while travelling on the road, one AC does not keep up. It's a concession we live with but if I were in the market a second AC would definitely be on the wish list.

Maybe it's something as simple as the rear tire is in a low spot or ........a soft tire at any rate it's a poor way to sell their product it should be leveled.

Cant see the whole picture, but I don't see the ones next to it leaning. My 5th wheel never leaned that bad with super slide out, and they have pretty crummy suspension. In fact, I never even noticed it leaning and we never set the jacks to load it with the curbside slide out.

However, the rear bedroom slide extends out pretty far. It would be interesting to try the same model at the lot or a different lot.

That ain't cool. Something is wrong. Mine doesn't lean anywhere near that. I concede and agree - that is definitely severe.

seriously now HOW could it NOT lean with two slides out on one side with no jacks down? its has to lean with that much weight that far off the center of gravity of the MH

that is extreme IMHO. totally unacceptable.
bumpy

maybe it's only the one with both slides on one side
don't know......
I just threw it out there for something to look at before buying

didn't mean to start something
here is a pic and it seemed severe to me
maybe it's normal
my Thor stays flat with slides out and levelers not down
anyway.....level is in the eyes of the beholder
