We have almost decided on LTV unity MB but have seen the entegra qwest on the internet. Entegra at least did have good reputation but this is new for them . Any thoughts?

I submit that the Class C's from Entegra are not new...but a brand expansion of upgraded models based on the very good selling and well made legacy models from parent, Jayco.

You know that the Unity and Qwest have near identical Mercedes chassis, so look for the floorplan and fixtures YOU prefer.

LTV has always ONLY made these smaller RV's.
Entegra is making these, plus full sized Class C's, Gas Class A's, and their iconic Diesel Pushers as always.
So, only you will be able to decide which YOU like better.

Best luck

LTV only makes this size of motorhome. They have quite a selection of floor plans and features. Other companies make all kinds of RV models.
If you’re going to specialize in a particular market like LTV, you better be good at it. I think that speaks for itself of LTV.

Over the years, I’ve never run into any LTV owners who had any bad words for their product line. Quality speaks when customer satisfaction is that consistent, and I don’t own one. But if I were going to downsize, I’m pretty sure they’d have me as a new customer.

If I wanted exclusivity and cult-like customer loyalty...

Whatever you do, check the OCCC label in the coach before you get out the checkbook. Sprinter chassis motorhomes have limited carrying capacity based on how they are built. Many companies build these, but few companies engineer in lightness. At least one company does, Winnebago, so look at their models before you decide.

BTW, Entegra looks like they entered this market to have something that competes with the Tiffin Wayfarer. The particular floorplan they chose tends to have the lowest OCCC across many manufacturers, including Winnebago.

Thanks all. I cant find info on Occc or ccc on the qwest. Website not complete

luvlabs · 04-04-2018, 07:32 AM

The website will most likely never state the OCCC as they are individual for the specific vehicle. The only way you are going to find it, is look on the labels stuck to either door frame in the cab.

OP,

Just picked up our 2018 LTV Wonder FTB. OCCC is listed on the yellow sticker as 1797 Lbs. This on the Ford Transit chassis. Very good carrying for this class RV.

This is our second LTV product. One of the responses indicated great loyalty from LTV customers and I'll second that. I would not buy a coach from another manufacturer at this point. They only build 600/year so they pay attention to the details on each one. Two downsides to this: long delivery times and expensive (but you do get what you pay for).

Entegra Qwest is actually a slightly upgraded Jayco Melbourne Prestige. The only obvious difference and perhaps the only difference is a fancier paint job on the Entegra. When contacting Entegra for support for this vehicle they switch you over to Jayco support. We have purchased one (Entegra Qwest) and it had a lot of issues that had to be addressed. On the other hand they have addressed the issues without question or hassle. A couple things that jump out between the Entegra and the LTV. The Qwest has the overhanging bunk which provides shade and reduces glare and heat in the cab. The Qwest has higher ground clearance, but the LTV is not as tall. The LTV has dimmable LED's with Dimmers. The Qwest does not.
