We had an '07 Fleetwood Bayside and it was okay. I remember reading about problems with some of the various types of Fleetwood roofs but we never had any issues or concerns with ours. It's been enough years that I can't remember much detail but I did do some research at the time and I don't think ours had one of the more problematic roof styles. I think it might have been filon?
Roof aside our pop up was fine and didn't give us any major trouble. The manual slide worked fine but you did have to be careful with the tenting so as not to tear it. Our tenting held up great and had no leaks in it but we are in a dry climate and both we and the original owner always stored it under cover.
Price wise it was purchased new for around $14,000 (give or take), we paid $6500 about 4 years later, and then we sold it for $5500 about another 5 years after that. So financially the cost of ownership was pretty cheap for our time with it.
