I can't speak for all RVs. But our full wall slide in the 34.3 bunkhouse model came with 2 tracs. It was supposed to come with the 3TRAX system. Our slide has a lot of weight in it - and powered by the Schwintek electric motor system.

It was remanufactured by the dealer. But it failed repeatedly. The slide was now drifting outward by almost 2 inches during travel - causing us to send it to Thor for a final fix (over 900 miles).

Thor did repairs and sent it back to us. The slide still drifted out as the RV was delivered back to us.

I really don't believe ours was a lemon. I think that the system in ours was just under-engineered for the sheer weight. Thor is not admitting to that, and causing us all kinds of breech of warranty grief - if that helps make your decision.
