    Nothing wrong with a properly done Aluminum structure. Airplanes and large Yachts use aluminum all the time. I suppose it depends how well done thw welding is, and the design has a lot to do with it as well. Many Fire Trucks and Ambulances are made in Aluminum as well. Steel is OK, but what is...

    Burning Kingsley

    What I meant was factual errors vrs, different opinions. There is a big difference. I have taken my discussion back to Jerry in private, since those discussions won't help anybody make a better decision on what coach to buy. The fire and what I learned are valuable to those considering what to...

    Burning Kingsley

    Well it is good to see that Jerry from Kingsley, who by the way is a very good competent guy and really the technical brains of the place, has chimed in. I posted my information in the hopes that it would help others trying to make a decision on what coach to buy. I didn't think that personal...

    My responses are measured because it's my stomach lining that will get a hole in it if I continue to be aggrivated. As far a suing Kingsley, They are broke so even if you win, what do you get? My first call when I got to the scene and saw what had happened was to my Insurance Company and left...

    At any price, these Truck Based RVs are a big investment. I think people should buy what they want. This Forum, (thanks WARPATH) Is a great way to be sure you get what you think you are getting. After all, who knows better than someone that has had one?

    It seems clear that many things will work just fine. What doesn't work is carelesness and ignorance. If the important things are done right, it does not have to be very sophisticated or exotic. If you run wires near a sharp edge, either get rid of the sharp edge or protect the wire. Not exactly...

    Actually, The safety aspect was one of the reasons I bought a Truck based RV. There was no way that I would want to be sitting 3 ft. behind the bumper with nothing between me and the accident like most Class A pushers. Much better to have 4,000 lbs. of engine and other structure... before an...

    Yes Warpath, there is no structure left because it burned. The construction used in the Kingsley is as follows. The Body is made at the Thor Factory in Middleburg PA. They make Thor's "value priced" travel trailers. Nothing fancy here, just your garden variety $15-25K travel trailers. The...

    Burning Kingsley

    I owned a Kingsley from 2001 to 2003. While I loved the concept, the actual delivered product was a disaster. My coach was built in PA, and was the first that was built with a car lift for the garage. The lift was built by an outside company and worked great. The lower bay structure which...
