I have a excel now and I am thinking of trading it for a 2011 29 ft elkridge. My excel is made for full time use and I want a shorter lighter one to pull places and camp. What do you think of the elkridge?
And thanks for the input!!
Hi GMR, welcome to the forum! We use our ElkRidge for extended trips in 100+ degree summer and -10 degree winter, and here lately, as a temporary residence in Texas. We love our rig, but I would tell you it is NOT built for full-time living, and is very much a recreational unit. We have had to make modifications to use it in those extremes and be comfortable.
Through 5 years of ownership (ours is a 2010 34QSRL), we have upgraded here and there many items throughout the coach. And as with any RV, things break or need maintenance, so we take the opportunity to improve along the way. I would say out coach is not equivalent to a stock ElkRidge now.
If you have specific concerns, you can send me a Private Message through the forum, and I can give you more targeted feedback.
Overall, our ER has done very well to serve us for recreational use. When compared to the competition, ER still stands out above the others.
Hope this helps!
