Glad to hear that! The Thor takeover really has me worried... Maybe this one was built soon enough after that "negative" changes hadn't yet fully filtered down to the line.

I've spoken with both the KZ dealers here in AZ, as well as KZ's SW sales rep, and the Durango 1500's just don't sell well here, for some reason. I think there's too many young people with families and toys, so cheap TH's and big bunk houses are what sells. The old crowd want all the luxuries. Those of us who are in-betweeners (60's and still working), and don't want to tow the Titanic, seem to have many fewer choices in dealer stock.
