What difference does a bedroom slide make then any other slide.

I'm so glad I did not buy a DRV. Sure seems to be a lot of problems with them on the various forums. I think some won't admit since they paid so much:o. Sure have pretty paint though:W. I wonder why there are so many used ones listed for sale?

I Ordered mine a few days after THOR took over. Build quality did not change.

Even with the few I issues I have had I would still buy another.

Sure they do, but a high end thats 2-3 years old. Obviously factory defects that were not caught by dealer, nor owner. Chalking , poor fit somewhere was not detected . That thing to be rotting has leaked since day one .

That just shows that there is NO BRAND that is immune to the issues

I know a woman who purchased a brand new DRV down in Florida and when it rained, her floor around the sofa was soaked....

I just assumed she got that 1 bad apple..... Friday build ??

Very true, we met a woman down in Georgia who had a DRV, and this was in 2007 or so, and she had so many issues she had to take it back to the factory to have every thing repaired. So yeah, stuff happens.

It's not the same company anymore, just in name.
