wood or metal trusses
I know sales people will sometimes say whatever they think will sell the trailer- but are metal trusses really that much better than wood? What do you think?

When you take a metal frame (aluminum cage for example) coupled with 2" block foam insulation and 2 layers of Azdel or Compositek, you're talking about a VERY STRONG durable wall, side, front, roof, etc. Sent through a pinch roller, it's strengthens the sideboard that much more.
And yes, some mfgs use wood inside of the aluminum cage (tubing) to help anchor the wallboard, etc. This is perfectly acceptable, in my opinion.
It beats the heck out of 2x4's with house insulation as building materials, which is what Jayco uses.
