Do all the XLRs have that same faux-wood flooring? That is one of my DW's favorite things about our unit--she loves the way that floor looks like real barnwood. Nice feature.

There is now a walk through video of the 425AMP on XLR's Facebook page.

time to trade in the '14, that looks niiicccee!

Gotta say it looks a little shy of counter space though(compared to what my 395 has), but it sure is nice and open looking.

Are there any weight numbers yet? Also looking to see some pics of the 420AMP with the side patio deck... and the weight of that rig also!

We are still awaiting numbers on the 425. We won't have the 420 numbers until at least mid Feb.

I saw a side patio (other brand) at a recent show, and while it was pretty neat, I'm wondering if the novelty of it would wear off quickly. Maybe the XLR can pull it off a little better than the competition.

My thoughts on the side patio were: how does it look from inside when it's up? You can't put anything in front of that sliding door. What happens to the water if it's raining and you have to put it up? Just more places to leak. Is it really that horrible to sit on a patio or the grass outside the TT? But that's just me.

I believe the theory is that it's more of an extension to the LT/Kitchen than it would be to go down the steps to a campsite patio or grass. I don't think leaking or water would be any issue. No different than the ramp door patio all the haulers have now. If it came with a floorplan I liked, I wouldn't be averse to it...
