Hello Everyone,
So I'm thinking about purchasing a Thor Indigo or Luminate.
I'm seeing a lot of awful reviews on the Thor products and am becoming very cautious of making the plunge.
If you have bought a new RV can I ask you for an honest opinion good or bad on your purchase or should I just stay away from a Thor.
thanks in advance
If you can build a house single-handed, from foundation to roof, wiring and plumbing, then you'll be ok, but busy. You need to know DC electrics too.
I have done all that plus having 40 cars and bike/ ski tech for 20+ yrs, and inventor for 7 yrs, so I thought I would be ok with a POS build. Sorta... lotta work.
Building a new house is easier. Nothing to un-do. Just as my brother's motto said- "Do it right".
Thor shoves these out the door with little or no QC, which I found out after owning another floor plan (Tellaro 20AT), so I decided to sell and get the one with the things I like (Tellaro 20L), and just rebuild it, which has taken me 2 yrs, and now thinking of re-doing the cabinets and tearing all apart to insulate as it is NOT insulated.
I've already re-wired mine, and added some insulation where I could reach.
Upper cabinets get very hot inside, so food has to go in cooler parts. Fridge probably works too hard too.
Mouse entry has been a big problem too- can't seem to find the one place left they are getting in...
Wrong screws, stripped, or just bad applications everywhere. Debris from construction inside compartments, etc etc.
So if you want something to use right away, avoid TMC coaches- and look at Coachmen or other instead. many problems with these rigs.
Aside from all that, I like the Promaster chassis of the class B RV.
But next time (if ever) I'd just get a van and make my own. Not rocket science.
Good luck!
