More new alum skinned campers than fiberglass
Went to an RV show last week & noticed the majority of these new campers are aluminum skinned rather than fiberglass/filon skinned. Has anyone else noticed this trend in new TT's?

Aluminum sided is just as impervious to water as filon/fiberglass. Leakage occurs at penetrations, not through the siding.
If you've ever removed and installed the aluminum siding you will know just how good of a fit is between panels. It is a very tight fit and well designed with a double overlap.
Even most trailers that have filon/fiberglass sides are framed with wood. I know for a fact that the vacuum bonded panels in my Aliner have wood in them, not aluminum framing.
