We have a 2012 GT 378XL and love the floor plan and our colors. We have had a couple minor issues but all in all we love our motor home. I think what ever will work for your needs will be the best for you. Every motor home has it's problems even the million dollar Provost's.

..I think your two statements here, pretty much summarize the fact that the Georgetown and Bounder are in the same overall class/category. Either one would be a good choice, and quality will be very close between the two.

It really comes down to all the other factors. Which one has the floorplan, color options you like best? Which one has the option choices more to your liking? Which one can you get the better deal on? Which dealer has the best reputation, and seems best to work with? Thats what I would focus on.

We have a 2012 Georgetown 351DS, bought it new over 2 years ago and absolutely love it. It has had a handful of minor little quirks we've had to work through, the typical little things you deal with in a new unit. No, it ain't built like a tank or a Cadillac, but for how much $$ I saved over what the next level up in quality would have cost...We are very, very happy with it. ๐Ÿ™‚

IMHO, the one coach that has the floor plan and colors that suits your needs.

As a former Fleetwood gasser (pace arrow) owner who has also shopped many Georgetown units, gassers and DP's....

Georgetown is an entry level manufacturer, like forest River, Damon, and Thor.
That means they are built to a price, and if build quality must be sacrificed to meet the price, then so be it.

Fleetwood is a tier up. Built to a quality standard (tho not the highest) rather than a price.

Bouner is fleetwoods "anyone's RV" They are good units.
