After having spent the last eight hours removing the original sheet metal and then making a new HDPE bin for or Sightseer my wife and I started thinking about our next coach (years down the road) and wondered in any Class A's had plastic cargo bins. Any ideas??

Thanks!!

Thanks for all the responses! It just baffles me how a company would use sheet metal that is not even galvanized when the cost per coach to use plastic or such would be a negligible cost difference (if at all).

After reading your first post on the other thread, I'm not understanding what you're asking for. Are you meaning the bay's themselves? If so ( I might be wrong) the supporting frame work is steel ( that supports the bay's). Even if the bay is plastic. Ours is lined with a plastic of some sort, but what's supporting it is steel.

I don't understand why they make the walls and roof out of aluminum, then put the lower section with the storage bays together with steel and the lousy paint job. :M

Wow. My old 96 Southwind has plastic bins. I thought all the newer units went to plastic.
