I'm considering going to a C or Super C as my next RV method and recently looked at and drove an Omni XG32. I have been leery of Thor branded RVs based on some specific observations and the many comments see on the various forums. Yes I know that bad news travels fast. 2nd issue was the coach is at a CW/Gander RV and they, the company not necessarily this store, have a deservedly bad reputation.
I started my "C search" a few months ago researching and reading what was relevant. I initially was thinking a smaller C, perhaps a sprinter based but that idea was quickly squashed due to cramped interiors and puny towing capability. Winnebago was high on the list due to my previous experience with ownership of an Itasca Horizon DP. FR got consideration since my GF has a FR Crusader 5th wheel that's mostly our "cabin" on the bayou in NW FL. I also looked at an Entegra Esteem, Winnebago Cambria. I went to look at a Minnie Winnie 31K at the CW and also a Thor Omni. The Omni XG32 is the biggest C I've looked at and longer than our initial desires but it's hard to fit what we want and "need" into 27'. I was expecting the worst as quality and what I saw pleasantly surprised
me. I've also read all the posts I can find on this and other forums and the preponderance of owners are pleased with the Omni/Magnitude.
That said I'm on a trip from AL to AZ and back and plan to look at a variety of RVs (C) and hope posters here can give some tips on what to look for and ideas based on personal experiences.
