Thing's that make you go H'mmm

Re: .

I have seen a few trailers and I think that most of them have some fitment issues when concerning trim. They do what is the quickest for assembly line install. To perform some of the cuts required for a flush and tight fit would take time to do I don't know if that is possible in an assembly line process.

The only thing I compare it to is our 6 year old Cyclone. And it doesn't compare as i would hope.

The cabinets makers could do the fitment before they send them to HL. Unless things have changed...HL does not build the cabinets. They are farmed out to an Amish company.


Most of the cabinetry is built right next to line were it gets installed.

DRV's are not perfect either, but overall fit and finish is nice.

There are things with DRV that make you go H'mmm as well.

Like the use of plastic fittings that eventually will be behind a finished wall, behind a cabinet.

And, no doubt we were surprised to see a DRV Fullhouse ToyHauler behind the new Heartland service center Monday for a photo shoot.
I would have like to do a walk around, but after the first impression I had with a Heartland blue shirt, i had no desire to have any more impressions. 'Cause as we know, "you only get one chance to make a good first impression".

Re: .

I too had some of your same concerns and observations Duane....one thing I didn't understand, if as Tom says, the Key West can accommodate a washer AND a dryer, why were the washer hookups in the cabinet next to the outer wall? If the dryer goes in the other cabinet...how is it being vented?? I won't even comment on the flower box and dog cage..already said my piece on that!

Almost forgot, one of the rigs had the point of a screw sticking through the wall behind and above the toilet.
