We started Full Time RV Life 7 years ago with a Tiffin Phaeton were happy but wanted more so got a Newmar Mobile Suites. That was the life. We traveled the U.S. until 1 too many back surgeries led me to need to stay more stationary. That isn’t practical in a Class A so we bought a VanLeigh Beacon which all in all was a good home after we got a number of bugs fixed. My wife complained every time she made the bed and hated the fact that there was no room in the bedroom for moving around and little storage. Happy Wife Happy Life - we went looking for a replacement.

This leads me to the reason for this post. We took delivery of a 2022 DRV Mobile Suites Houston which is our full time home. We had problems with an Insignia Refer and Insignia TV but both DRV and Best Buy stepped up and resolved those. On the DRV side we have had only a minor issue with a pocket door.

As complex, sophisticated and big as this 5th wheel is that is astounding and i want to give praise to both DRV Mobile Suites and Explore USA for delivering a truly magnificent home. It feels like home and lives like it too. Thanks DRV

That's fantastic, but at those prices it should be. Enjoy.

Congratulations on your new rig.

If you haven't already, you might want to check out the DRV owners group on Facebook. It has a lot of useful info specific to the brand.

Very informative information in your post. We just purchased a (almost new) 2021 Houston ourselves to live in full time. The only issue we have found thus far is, the main front door and the screen door do not stay attached when opening from the outside. Hopefully you could inform us what we are doing wrong.
