All hydraulic slides/ no cables breaking /no cables fraying/ no slide-out Motors leaking onto the roof /no in command system that doesn't work /no steps that fold up into your camper throwing all the dirt and water inside of it/ no friction hinge door you need two hands to open and close.

IMHO find a good older used one that was stored inside and well taken care of with all the bugs already worked out and you'll be much happier

Ahhh, come on! Those fold up steps throwing dirt inside? Friction doors requiring 2 hands? Really?

Well, we've although we've put covers on the steps as we always have, brush, sweep, vacuum there is zero way to keep sand from coming inside. For us, because we spend so much time in FL and our camp is literally beach sand, it is a fact of life. It wasn't a big issue with the non fold in steps but these sometimes pose a problem....but, we wouldn't trade them simply due to the increased stability. Friction door has gotten tight a time or 2 but we far prefer it to the old "swing away" door. Just takes a little getting used to.
