Same here. I take it a step farther, thinking that if we want trouble-free reliability, the fewer things we have to assume that need to work correctly, the more likely it will work right. Basically, simple is more reliable than complex.
As an example, I don’t like the looks or feel of slides, extended or retracted, but beyond that, a slide can not be as reliable as a solid wall. It’s one less thing to maintain or worry about.
I wonder if all the problems slides cause isn’t hurting growth rate of larger motorhomes. Class As essentially all have multiple slides or a full-wall slide. Practically all larger Class Cs have them, whereas smaller Cs not always. A few Class Bs have them, but the vast majority don’t. I doubt many buyers are downsizing solely to avoid slides, but anyone who researches how slides are the #1 trouble item on RVs can’t help being influenced to some degree.
