I am waiting for the 2009 Mandalay dp which will be out this time next year around March or april with 4 slides, that is when I will trade . This 2006 THOR HURRICANE now is for state park camping and federal parks. Easy to get in and out.

For what it's worth, we have friends who have had a Mandalay for a year or so. It's a beautiful coach and what few minor problems they have had, have been taken care of promptly.

They are very happy. As a matter of fact they are wandering around out west somewhere now.

The Presidio also comes in 4 different models and could save you a considerable amount of money over it's upper class Mandalay.

PhilnJune,

We purchased our new Mandalay last December and lived in it for 4 months last winter. From what I've read and hear from owners of other brands, our initial, mostly minor, problems were probably less than the norm. Overall, we are very happy with the coach and truly appreciate its many nice features. The most outstanding thing however, has been the factory's support. I can't say enough about their willingness to address problems quickly and fairly.
