I get that sentiment.
Me, I want somebody to try it again, and do it right. As opposed to Wright.
Five minutes after the corrected one is built, the new guy is an architectural Leonardo da Vinci, and Wright becomes some guy who held the palette for him.

Considering the relationship that Leonardo da Vinci had with palette-holders and the fact that Wright's dead... implications unpleasant.Aesop wrote:I get that sentiment.

At least that's my (non-expert, YMMV) opinion and what I meant to convey. I've seen all kinds of rigs built by everyone from Jay Schaeffer to some anonymous redneck, but I don't always express myself clearly and concisely, and not all sites/people use the same terminology.
RVs designed for snowbirds are really designed for year-round living. Especially the popouts.
