THOR #23746
Greetings

New potential Thor Outlaw owner here and first time RV buyer. I'm looking really hard at both Class A and C options but I'm leaning toward the Class A. For the class A, I'm looking at either the KB or MB floor plan. My only concern about the Class C (it's a 2015 35SG) is that the primary use of the garage is to transport my motorcycle and the clearance at the top of the ramp is not enough that my motorcycle will "bottom out." Also, I'm hearing that I should hold off on the 2020 and 2021 models because of an axel recall that is hard to get serviced because Ford and Thor keep pointing fingers at who is supposed to fix it.

Also, I'm hearing that this is not a good time to buy and I should wait until after Thanksgiving to buy. If that's the case, I can certainly wait until then.

I'm combing every thread on this forum so any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

Welcome to our slumber party!
I had a 2018 Outlaw 29H, and the breakover angle was a bit too steep for my Spyder...
I would set the bottom of the ramp of some 6" blocks, and use short ramps to climb up onto it.
(You can also raise the front of the RV with the levelers, and that will help...}
In the meantime: Happy Shopping!

That's what I figured would help... raise the front and lower the rear with the leveling system, but I wasn't sure how much of an angle would be alleviated by doing so. I wish I had the dealership demonstrate that for me when I was there.
