Sometime around 2012/13 Thor, in it's ultimate wisdom, decided to roll Dutchmen/Aerolite's customer service and management into the Keystone Division. There was a definite change in build quality, and customer service when that happened, and not for the better. Aerolite is just a shell of a brand with what they offer today compared to what it was prior to that change. More of a name than a separate brand as Aerolite, Dutchmen, Kodiak, and Coleman are made in the same factory by the same workers. A lot of the floorplans are clones of each other.
We had a 2011 Aerolite 185E hybrid which was rock solid and never had one single issue. People I know who have the newer Aerolite products have had nothing but issues. A dealer friend of mine carried Aerolite and Dutchmen for years up until Thor made the change. He dropped selling the brand shortly after.
Good info, thank you.
