This is just my opinion, but I think one reason you don't see as much "talk" concerning the Kingsley or Powerhouse conversions is that they are not constructed as strong as the others you mention. Most, like Showhauler, use a welded steel framework surrounding the coach. Heavier, oh yeah, but that is not as much a concern when you are dealing with a truck with a 20,000# capacity on a single rear axle. The Powerhouse pretty much uses an as-built trailer coach with its stick-and-staple construction, and I think Kingsley isn't much stronger than that just described.
Anyway, stick around, ask lots of questions, and you will find out more than you dreamed of! I sure have! Welcome to the group!
