They have been doing this for years. No change. As soon as someone finds a way to save a nickle, they all jump on. How about the change to slide mechanisms like Schwintek and Bal? Anyone think you see those systems everywhere because they are so troublefree or are more reliable than the old gear motors? Surely not!

the older I get.. .... ..
my past trailer was a "LITE" a 2006.. did not keep it long. it was 3,300 pounds and 21 feet.
I could not live with the "LITE"-ness of it... everything could flex/bend/give.. etc.
I later got a 2005 Coachman. a more robust unit... real wood faces.. real metal. fiberglass type body...
I guess this old body of mine just like Metal/weight/firmness .. Mass... I do not know for sure.
but what I see on the market today.. I will continue to keep my 8,000 pound trailer..
