Just at first glance the baggage doors and bonded windows are Lippert junk, as is the pleather furniture and the table and chairs. The lighting is the same $3 fixtures you get with any of them and the plumbing fixtures appear to be the same plastic garbage as all.
If you buy into RV marketing BS on websites and brochures that's your prerogative. As volatile as the RV Industry is going with a new manufacturer in this scenario might not be a great idea. At the slightest economic downturn at best you could find your manufacturer being acquired by Thor or Forest River, and at worst you could have an orphan on your hands. Just the fact they say they'll be building them in Elkhardt leaves me with a huge dose of skepticism. They did use a Moryde pin box as opposed to LCI but so do many others. Looks status quo here other than the aesthetics.
If the awning is fully extended in the picture what good is it? It hardly projects beyond the slide. Just about useless.
