Reactions from the Tampa Show

[silver]

We have a 2008 39QS and I am always amassed when I look at the new floor plans and they have less counter space and less seating in longer coaches. I can never figure out where the room has gone.

I feel the same way. I would not even consider a Moho with out two recliners. Why would I want to sit in the same seat I just drove in all day. The sofa's the my out in Moho's are very uncomfortable and in my opinion worthless. I spent to much getting mine the way I like it. I just can't see spending that much in a new Moho them another 8 grand to make it comfortable.

We have had this discussion on another thread --TwiceTheIce, would LOVE to hear about your impressions of your new XLT (see my sig )

I agree Phil, but I think what Ed meant is the XLT is a tad dated when compared to the Ventana.

Without dragging THAT thread up again , let's just say they should have put a smart wheel in the XLT at minimum

[Phil57]

I just don't see the big deal of a smart wheel. I have one on my car but don't miss it when driving theMoho.

Somehow I am able to turn on my wipers from my "dumb dash". Have smart wheel in 2 of my cars and it makes no difference to me.

Only feature that I would care about with a smart wheel is audio controls, and none of them that I have seen on moho's have that feature.

I think this whole smart wheel discussion is really about how the XLT stacks up against the Ventana. Seeing as how the Ventana comes with a smart wheel standard and the XLT doesn't.

I feel the smart wheel would be nice to have, but so would a lot of other things the Ventana has that the Berk XLT doesn't. But the XLT starts out at a higher MSRP.

I hate to be nosy, but I wish I knew what Twice paid for his out the door.

Cajun, although I didn't directly ask, when I checked one out, I got the impression that it could be gotten for the mid to upper 200's.

Thanks Rich!

Cajun, found this on the interweb....
Berkshire XLT Diesel Class A RV by Forest River RV's 2016 | See Dealer Cost

That's showing a dealer cost of 67% of selling price which I would question. Unless Forest River changed their pricing structure it would seem unlikely that the dealer margins would have dropped to a third. I just don't know how accurate the website is.

I would say that website is completely inaccurate!
