We recently traded in our Coach House Platinum 23XLS for a Thor Vegas 24.1.
The Coach House was well built, but a little tight on inside. Even with the slide, it wasn't comfortable for two people traveling together. For one person, it was great.
Recently, after three days of camping in the rain with both of us stuck inside, my wife said, 'We need something bigger.'
She was right, so the next day we started looking. We found a 2017 Vegas 24.1 at a local RV dealer, and a week later, we bought it.
We've now had our Vegas for two months and have already put 4,000 miles on it. We've camped in it 14 days, and so far we both really like it.
It is easy-to-drive, handles surprisingly well, and it has a lot more room inside and a lot more storage capacity than the Coach House.
Coach House does make a quality unit, no doubt about it. The factory is near where we live, and I've been through it and saw how well they are assembled.
But a new one costs at least twice what a Vegas would, and we like the floorplan and liveability of the Vegas a lot more. So far, we've had no issues with the Vegas.
