Host Aspen SB triple.
Saw a nice camper on CL today. It was a 2014 Host Aspen triple slide for a short bed. What a nice layout. If I had a short bed, it would be hard to pass something like that up. Note: I have nothing...

Just curious . When people look at floorplans like this , what do they see ? extra room ? Do people look any further than that ?
......it got me thinking, shortbed ?
Ford once made a SB dually on a 350 . I know someone who owns one and his A/Fox 860 will max it out rolling down the road...one slide.
1. When I was hanging out at my friends dealership all I saw was rv after rv come into the shop with slideout issues. It really opened my eyes.
With all the posts on this site involving slideout problems , why would anyone want to have 3 of them ?
2. slideouts with kitchens ( and as I see now, bathrooms as well ) don't have the best track record for repair. Plumbing and electrical issues due to moving parts was common.
3. Looking at the extra weight of a slideout (x3), I cant see this being a light camper.
Its beyond me how some company 'claims' its lighter than one with one slide. If its the same size box, how are they saving the extra weight ? Balsa wood and helium ?
They all use the same appliances which weigh the same.
