I do not own either of these Rv's but I want to add my 2 cents. I am not disparaging Nexus with my comments either. I was at the Nexus facility this past friday because we have been contemplating a move to an RV with a rear bedroom instead of the cab over we currently have.
Nexus offers a good value unit, but when we started adding all of the high end options our RV currently has (dual pane windows, electric base board heaters, fire place, propane/elctric cooktop, ultra leather, solid surface counter tops, tank heaters, all wood cabinets, 4 wheel drive (not offered by Nexus) the price gets right back to where the so called high end manufacturers are at.
So what I am suggesting is to look way beyond the floor plan of what you want and look at the options you currently have and/or want in your new RV and you might be surprised that the "value pricing" offered by Nexus isn't really there. With this being said, I believe they are building a quality product, and the price is value priced for the standard version of their offerings.
