Highland Ridge RV

I bought my Open Range in July (?) of 2015 and other than a broken Lippert axle spring I haven't had the first problem. We've only stayed in it for about 150 days or so and only towed it about 20,000 miles so I may not have tested everything yet. Everything I've looked at on it has been way overbuilt and of excellent quality. But it's only my 10th RV so I can't really compare it to every other make.

I don't know what moniker it was manufactured under but it doesn't say Jayco or Thor anywhere on it.

We bought a 2016 Open Range in Sept. The fit & finish is very good. And there have been no issues w/ the camper it's self. Do have two wheel bearing seals that are bad. (only about 1000 miles on the unit) Both seals are on the same side of the TT, so I think there was an issue on the axle manufacture line. All is being replaced under warranty. (with the assistance of our dealer, Southern RV in Richmond, VA.)
This is our second TT so we have a 'little' experience and 'think' we know what to look for. As I said, so far everything is Good.
I have a good friend, and his wife, who have a lot more experience w/ TT's & class A's. They've looked over the Open Road and are impressed w/ the workmanship.
So my appraisal of the Open Road is Good. I'm sure there are others who will read this and strongly disagree.
Happy Trails

In general Open Range had a decent reputation before and after the sale.
Jayco did not buy Open Range to improve them but saw them as a viable company that was building a decent product.
Much in the same way Thor purchased the entire Jayco conglomerate Open Range and all.
The name Highland Ridge was given to Open Range to as a way to distinguish it's new purchase as a stand alone operation. I'm sure there were also liability reasons to isolate the old company from the new company.
