Any opinions??

Love it, have the HAB 2015 and just put 11000 miles on it avoiding winter.

Really like villagio. Comfortable to drive. Upgraded foam in HAB pull out couch, upgraded tankless water heater. Did 11,000 miles in last three months. Drove cross the country on northern route and handled well.

Put a piece of 1x4 in and slanted sides. Put a small block on side hitting resting door. Works well, pressure tight, can be removed.

My Mercedes Sprinter has a Renagade Villagio on it. When I pull out of a gas station and the exit is not level, I rock like crazy.

I read about sway bars but have no experience. Any thoughts?

I also have the MB 3500 that my Renegade sits on. This is my first drive able home on wheels. When I pulled a trailer I got into the habit of leaving a driveway or road that was not leveled with the road I was pulling on to to go slow. I still do that today with my Renegade Villagio. I was always told that the trailer or MH was taller then my car or truck so take it slow. ( top heavy) Since I am now retired I try to take it slow I have all the time in the world as long as I leave on time. I stay out of the left lane except to pass and give the 18 Wheeler's plenty of room. But I still hate the horn that came on it.

Howdy LazyBill. FYI, I just finished replacing the stock single horn (approx. 92.7 db at 15 ft.) with dual Hella Supertones (approx. 111 db at 15 ft.). So far I'm very happy with the increased attention getting. I did repaint the red horn grille matte black, I think it looks better behind the front grille.
