Brand preferences ?? Brands to avoid ??
Liked asking which truck brand is best or which brand to avoid.
I've owned a Fleetwood rv trailer....Thor rv trailer and a Skyline trailer all many said the brands to avoid back then.
I never had anymore or less issues than the more popular brands.
IMO people get hung up on what they think is a best/better brand.
We always chose a floorplan we wanted at a deal we could afford and lived happily ever after.
Rubber roofs ??
My old '97 5th wheel rv trailer (24 years old) has a 32' long roof with a rubber membrane. Like others with older trailers I've kept up my annual simple maintenance of checking sealant....checking missing/cracked roof jacks and other fixture on the roof. No issues with leaking.
Owning a rv trailer and having it last for years requires the owner either to do necessary maintenance or pay to have someone do it for them......tires/axles/inside the hubs/frame on up to the roof. Lots of old rv trailers like mine with rubber roofs still doing their jobs.
Failure to do either can result in a rotted worn out wreck.
