Who has an Isata 5 4x4 (especially 30FW)
I'm considering changing up my whole RV game. Right now I have a big Class A and tow a stacker trailer for the toys. Our camping and use is switching from big, open areas like Glamis and big RV "resorts" more towards smaller parks and offroad camping (I got the Class A stuck at Sand Mountain, NV... that was fun). We're considering "downsizing" to an Isata 5 with the 4x4.
I know it's a HUGE change, but if we're going to downsize I really like the idea of the smaller 30FW floorplan. The 36DS is an option... but it's only about 4' shorter than my current coach so it's not the big change I'm hoping for.
Anyway, what can you tell me about your experiences with the Isata 5? I know every new coach has its teething issues, we went through a whole bunch of issues on our Dutch Star. What has been a problem on your Isata 5?
Also, I'm really interested to hear from anybody that tows with their Isata 5. What are you towing? What grades have you hit? How does it do? I'd probably have a ~8k lbs trailer behind mine (20-24' box with 2 Polaris RZRs).
Finally, how is the drive going down the road? Does it get blown around badly by wind and big rigs? My Dutch Star is so, so, SO stable and I think I'm really going to miss that. I know there aren't a ton of 4x4 models out there, but if you have one I'd love to hear how it drives.
Thanks,
TJ
