I'd buy it with the No Bunk Option and if it had theater recliners in lieu of dinette. Size is just what I've been waiting for. What is relative 2020 MSRP on the 30FW?

It is a neat design. What would really set it off would be 3D! I guaranty that would be a trend setter for RV exterior design. From what I've seen posted, a majority of folks have had enough of the "swooshes".

That rack also has an attachment that can be purchased that attaches skis. (From Thule, not us)

X3 - No bunk.
One of the reasons we passed on buying the ISATA 4 early this year was that it only came with a bunk over the cab.

When/where can we see this rig in person? I’ve watched the original video a number of times, and keep going back to this interior pic, but really want to walk around and see how we might fit in this space. Thanks!

Isata 5 Series 28SS (Pictures, hot off the press)
Brian, What is the 2020 MSRP on the 30FW relative to the 28SS?
Will theatre seating be available to replace the dinette on the 28SS?
My vote is for a no bunk option.

One place you can check is MHSRV. They have three 28SS on order with a MSRP of $226-$228k. They all have the Xplorer package. The majority of the 30FW have an MSRP of $214-$216k. MHSRV will usually have any new models posted “on order” long before you see them at the RV dealers.
I was there today on my way home from Dallas and saw my first 30FW in person. They always have them on order, but never on the lot. Unfortunately the one they had didn’t have the theater seats which is one option that is a must. Really like the new “sprung” dinette seats. They pivot up very easily.
The 30FW I saw had a CCC of 2284 lbs.....wow! Coming from my Isata 3 with 943 lbs it quite an improvement. There were a total of six seat belts. With that kind of carry capacity you are likely to see a cab over bunk.

The 28SS is LOWER (by a little bit) than the 30FW if spec'd the same. Once you add the Xplorer package then it is going to be more, as noted above.
I just spent the weekend in the 28SS. Got down to the 20 degree range for tailgating. I hope to publish my performance report shortly.

Brian said in the FB live video you can "pick your poison" Dinette, Recliners or Couch

Dig the paint scheme. Don't care if it is dark or light. Nicely done. The roof on all of them is light.
Like the option of the cab over...great place to store the cats if wife wants to bring them.
Dig the Xplorer Package...well worth the extra cost.
Dig the what appears to be an upgraded Awning.
Dig the lithium batteries, 800 watts of solar and the extra insulation.
Dynamax is really beginning to set itself apart from all of the ho hum out there.
We are ordering one soon...just cannot decide which one at the moment.
As of tonight, the 28SS is winning.

We have a 28SS coming down the line right now spec'd with the lighter paint. I have seen the "spray outs" (sample colors sprayed on cards) Should have pictures soon.
It will be the magnetic paint colors, with a pearl white being the lightest. the hope was, cool in the desert, with a little feeling of snow capped mountains

Agree with Pickles, the competition will be playing catch up. What a rig you are building.
