Host Everest vs the Eagle Cap 1165

As I age I am looking at upgrading my Eagle Cap 1160 with either a Host Everest with its dual access to the bed area, triple seat sofa and tray accessed external storage or the EC 1165 with it's wider door access to the bed, sofa, kitchen island and larger external storage. Eagle Cap has fixed the slide mechanism to close and roll more efficiently. I have no info on the Host system upgrades especially in its slides. Any advice from users on either of these units would be appreciated.

  • Thanks for the quick response. After your years of slide operation, does the top of the slide close as securely as it used to? Or does it gap?
  • I don't have a newer Host, but I know they rev'd their slides a few times before 2006 models. I can't say if they changed a lot in their newer ones, but if they didn't, they have a solid approach to slides. I've had zero issues. I hope this helps.
