Just got an 09 Spree 324bhs...same floorplan in most models, but this seemed to be put together real well, and for people that replied to my question, most found they had issues with FR Rockwood bolts shearing and leaking in bathroom. I'm sure all have their issues, but people with Sprees reported non. Also GVWR of the 33' we just bought is only 7500 wet!!

what brand to avoid? That's kinda like asking who you should vote for. Most people like their brand and the ones that don't likely got a lemon, but others will swear by that brand.

Ours is a Fleetwood Prowler Lynx. We love it. The construction is mostly very good, with a few minor issues. I know others at the forum HATE Fleetwood, but ours has been very good to us.
