THOR #21820
2018 Thor Freedom Elite 30

We sold a Thor Ace 29.2 because even after doing all the suspension upgrades still was not a joy to drive. Bearable for me, but not the wife. We bought a C class hoping its handling would be better than the ACE and also for the floor plan which had better sleeping arrangements. Any input on the ride appreciated. We have only taken some short trips locally but heading out west to Montana, Wyoming etc. If need to do the suspension updates want to do before our trip in July. Thanks

Drive it. Determine what you don’t like about the handling. Fix what you don’t like.

Don’t do something based on someone else. No two people or rigs are the same.

I just drove our class C from central Ohio to south of Beckley WV today... about 5 1/2 hours drive. Rain, wind, mountains... and more rain. Add in the sh**** road conditions (I-77 north of Charleston) and it's a handful. It drifts a little, and requires constant attention in these conditions. You still can't really "knee steer" even in calm sunny weather... BUT it's not at all bad. I would call it "handles as expected".

We have the same coach just a 2017, we haven’t done any suspension upgrades. The only thing we have done is the safe t plus. We have driven it across the country no problems at all.
