Re: Quality control?

High End has shifted to considerable higher in price. To truly get high end you need to be in the $150,000 to $200,000 range. $100,000 is now a upper-medium cost 5th wheel. And having been in sales I found you had to know as much about your competitor's equipment as you did your own in order to do your job. Ken Regardless of what you, I, or the industry considers "high end" these shouldn't be on display having issues that are being seen in my opinion. At the end of the day it is still a considerable amount of money being spent even on a $100,000 RV.612Views0likes0CommentsQuality control?
We spent last 2 weekends looking at new 5th wheels. Both brands we were looking at had numerous issues, from slides not working to torn vinyl flooring, seals on slides and trim hanging, to valances that had fallen. I would think the manufacturers would want things being gone over before either leaving the factory or before being shown at dealerships. Both were higher end RVs...I don't get it. I would estimate that out all of the RVs we looked at, more then half had issues.5.8KViews0likes25CommentsRe: GMC TPMS

I will probably just continue to use my aftermarket TPMS on the 5th wheel if I can't set them to the correct pressure in the truck. Silliest thing I’ve heard in a while. You really want your TPMS to alarm you at 109 psi? 1 psi under what you think it should be? ROFL No, he does NOT want it setting off the alarm constantly because the tires are 10PSI over pressure. Exactly...520Views0likes0CommentsRe: Bed cover for 2022 F350 8" when NOT towing
I previously had a Pace Edwards Full Metal on my 2008 truck and it worked well. Just took delivery of my 2022, spoke to an accessory dealer that informed me that basically there are 2 companies that bought up all independent bed cover companies including Pace Edwards. This go around I went with Roll N Lock, as Pace Edwards didn't show any inventory would have to be built when ordered. My fear was if needing parts may be difficult to get, also went with Roll N Lock as recommended from 2 different accessary shops. Also there were limited options for an 8 foot bed. So far so good with Roll N Lock.314Views0likes0Comments
