Spacecraft Mfg.

Any experience with Spacecraft Mfg? They seem rather expensive. Just wondering if anyone has had their RV made to order. Just checking all my options. Thanks!

I have not had one made by them, but I do know of someone with one of theirs. I can tell you it is a well built unit! They even somehow got a piece of petrified wood to make the vanity sink out of! It even has an extendable tongue with a pintle hitch. Yes, it is that heavy! Here are couple of videos that explain what his trailer is like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...&v=y29higGVc4c

They and New Horizon are the best RV you can buy but they are very expensive.

SpaceCraft has a Facebook page you can join. There are several owners on the Forums - Escapees Discussion Forum forum that are usually willing to answer all questions. If I was going to build a custom rig to my design, I would flip a coin... Heads SpaceCraft tails New Horizons.

Just bring lots of money ! You will also need a Medium Duty truck or a class 8 rig to pull it.

I can only judge by what I have seen at shows and the you tube videos on line but I have yet to see anything that impressed me more than a Spacecraft built unit.

Anyone think there is a better manufacture than Spacecraft?

Although the new Horizon units I have seen are impressive I don't think they are in the same league as Spacecraft in quality and attention to detail.

Anyone agree that New Horizons is in the same league as Spacecraft?
