The good:
Love the floorplan, the storage, and the size. Perfect for two humans and 2 fur-people.
The 'bad':
Not that bad actually. Stuff wears out in RVs fast. I've replaced/fixed : waterheater elements & thermostat, knobs on the stove, day/night blinds, decals, heater vents, plumbing leaks........ But all in all this has been one of the BEST rigs we've owned over the last 40 years.
Yeah, the sleeper/sofa is a bit of a roadblock. We use cots for the grandkids.
Here's the ugly:
Ours caught fire. Electrical short near the batteries. Most of the 12v wiring had to be replaced. (It's a long story that ended up costing almost $25K - find it in the archives)
On the other hand my brother-in-laws SOB caught fire in the middle of the night and destroyed itself, his house, and part of his neighbors house. Around $1.5M in damages and counting.
Yikes! : Check all the places you can get to the wiring where it passes though the frame. If there isn't a grommet make one out of fuel line by slicing it lengthwise.
Install a battery cut off switch.
Install auto reset breakers on the charging circuits from the tow vehicle and the converter.
Hit me with a PM if you want to see pictures.
