I find this odd: In that everyone is complaining about Thor quality
except the Axis owners (I haven't seen any Vegas owners post). Even when I search around irv2 I don't find anyone with quite the problems of all the other Thor owners. Sure there are a couple of quibbles but nothing like being stuck in a campground with the slide out and unable to retract!
Especially considering 2014 was the
first model year of the Axis/Vegas units! I'd expect the most complaints about it. (Heck even some family members were surprised when we told them it was a Thor--they had just got rid of their Thor 5th wheel due to quality issues.)
Perhaps all the Thor Q/C people are checking the Axis/Vega units for the initial launch and then once they go "mainstream" like the rest of the line the Q/C guys will go back on vacation...don't know..
Or perhaps its the dealers that are initially selling them giving them a final Q/C check before they go out the door (assuming there are
some good dealers)--although I suspect this isn't always the case as Camping World does sell them and most of the complaints around here of the dealers not being very good are Camping World dealers.
Or perhaps there isn't enough Axis/Vegas units out in the wild yet for Thor to let the few lemons slip through...
To be fair there
must be some happy Thor owners out there--they wouldn't be in business long if they all were crap (nor would the dealers for that matter).
Ok here is someone complaining about the Vegas quality on irv2:
thor axis? - iRV2 Forums
Note that they didn't purchase it just noted the crappy quality from seeing them at an RV show.
Now that I've posted this I'm sure I jinxed myself and our camper will simply fall to pieces the next time we go to use it LOL.
