I owned a 2017 Miramar 34.3. It had a 30 foot superslide. Unfortunately it was manufatcured incorrectly with a Lippert Schwintek 2 track system. It was supposed to come with a 3 trax system. It was remanufactured - but continued to work improperly. I have had more experience than I want with the Schwintek system and have found the following:
The slide is just too large and heavy for such an electric motor system. This type of system that Thor uses is cheaper and lighter - but has a high likelihood of malfunctioning (as any honest service tech).
Any full slide wall system, in my opinion, should have a hydraulic system. Smaller slides can get away with the Schwintek electric components.
