Seriously? I wasn't even replying to your post. :)

I happen to like your stainless sink, think it's a great idea, have stated previously that Thor should make it a standard, etc. How you...

Unfortunately still looking. We'd like to replace our van camper which has 160,000 miles as soon as possible. Our two best choices at present are a ProMaster Class B (too small and questionable...

It must be very difficult for Thor and other manufacturers to listen to feedback because it's probably so varied and subjective. Many buyers want lower cost, while others prefer slight upgrade at a...

I can relate to leaving things alone if it's working. It's that old "if it ain't broke ....." I now find it easier to adjust my expectations (to a point).

I'm curious which HD springs you've...

The fact that they report spring rate to be progressive makes it impossible to fully analyze accurately without more information. Over the first 2 inches of travel, the average spring rate is 250...

It's unlikely you'll see an inch.

Ford stripped chassis rated at 14,500 pounds GVWR have 5,000-pound front suspension with front springs rated at 418 pounds per inch on each side.

My intuition says that that motorhome had issues before it was built. The design proportions themselves seem questionable to me, particularly for towing. I wish him luck trying to fix inherent...

For an extra 1' added to length of 25.2, Thor could provide permanent shelves in form of much larger bathroom. ;)

Raising floor under dinette to cockpit elevation seems like an excellent idea. I would prefer going from a couch to a dinette (like converting a 24.1), but even there having the floor higher would...

Thanks. Sounds like they made the seat cushions 5-inches narrower per side. Is that right?

If my understanding is correct, I assume that means that since most Axis/Vegas have 74-inch-long...

On models where Thor offers a dinette or a couch for same location, does anyone know what is the typical cost for the more expensive option of the two?

The $2,000 seems reasonable as a retrofit,...

Agree with mcr1010, a nice job which would be more practical for us than a couch. Forward facing seats with seat belts are a must.

As I recall, the space where your dinette is installed was not...

Very nice dinette project. :thumb:

How wide did you make the dinette? I'm curious if you matched other Axis/Vegas dinettes or went with a different width. And can you post more pictures with...

Yeah, probably not. Based on Doc's posted dimensions, a dinette no longer than 68 inches limits it as a bed for too many adults.

On the other hand, if they offered it as the dinette in the 25.3,...

Yes, Thor extends the floor to full width of dinette, which is beyond the walls of slide. Can see in attached picture. I looked at this possibility myself a while back, but later liked the dinette...

You should check with an Axis/Vegas owner to confirm, but I recall reading in a previous thread that the 60X74 bed is oriented transversely. If so, that means your 74-inch-long dinette may not fit...

I asked Thor if they would build with a dinette and was told no -- on two occasions. Is Thor building it with dinette, or is dealer doing the modifications? Either way it's good to see.
