They really don't look much different/better and often have less features in my opinion. Is Winnebago considered more of a high end RV? What is higher than them? Airstream? What is below Thor? Coachmen or Jayco? Is Forrest River comparable to Thor?
I'm just trying to figure out about where "Thor" (specifically the Axis) sits in the marketplace. Love to hear your thoughts/opinions.

I was told that Thor was flooding dealers with new units and then having to heavily discount later on. Winnebago doesn't seem to over build so there's not a lot of inventory sitting around. Not sure if they do this on purpose or they cant manufacture at Thor's rate. Last 3 new Thor motorhome that I've bought I've gotten 35-37% off but with Winnibago I could only get about 20% off.
