New camper is a Lance 855S (owned 15-months and counting) - aluminum frame, fiberglass, 1-slide, dual-pane without a front cabover window, plus it features the new, one-piece, molded TPO front cap.

The 855S seems to handle the demands of off-roading just as well as the 820, but we definitely don't do some of the hair-raising rock-climbing I see others doing on the forum. So far, no known issues with the welds. Note: we primarily enjoy winter camping, so the heater and warmth factor is truly tested regularly.
