DH and I are camping up in Grove City and parked next to us is an Infinity. Neither one of us has heard of this one and boy is she beautiful! Unfortunatly I had to get up early and go to work but I am hoping DH will go over and say Hi. The ppl are from Ont Canada so they are probably here just for the nite tho.
Just wondering if anyone knows of this brand.

They were all over at the RV show here in Denver. Seemed like a nice rig. They are a Dutchman/Thor product.

It's a Dutchman product it's their top of the line and are very nice looking.
I think that out of all the front living room 5ver's that the Infinity looks the best IMHO.
And I'm A Cedar Creek guy!

I second that as I own one. THere were a few little qwerks to work out, but the unit is solid and very well built so far...

We looked at the Infinity while shopping this March for a new fifthwheel. We liked the 3750 which is very close to the Montana 3750. In the end it came down to a second access door in the bathroom. In a long trailer two doors were important to us for many reasons. The decors of the Montana and Infinty were different but we liked the Hickory cabinetry and trim. Frankly our Montana fully outfitted was priced nearly the same MSRP as a fully equipped Infinity. Also the Komfort 3750 is nearly identical in price as well. The Montana and its features fits are needs much better. I personally think, Thor builds fine coaches and I would happy with all three!

Looked at the Infinity last October in So. Cal and have to say we were impressed with the fit & finish and the front kitchen was awesome. We were looking however for a rear lounge, and the Infinity of course does have one, as we normally back in for the view where we typically go.
Floor plan is usually on the top of everyone's list and when we saw the Pinnacle in our sig. with the walk in pantry, which we haven't seen anywhere else, we were done looking.
Infinity is a good choice though I believe and we might be in one if they had our floor plan.

Dutchmen used to specialize in "entry level stuff". Today they, and a lot of others, want a piece of the upper end market. Now that Teton, Carriage, Travel Supreme and Newmar are gone.
Full body paint and such--all lipstick on a pig. They still have Lippert frams and such.
I was looking at some of the new "upper end" offerings a while back. Think they had GVWR's of close to 18K. The I-Beam part of the frame was like 1/8" thick. Thump on it, sounds like tin. Looked at mine--more like a 1/4".
Yep, actually drove to all of these places---in the last eight years. Missed Rhode Island and New Jersey.

Went last week and re-looked at the Infinity @ General RV in Ohio and I found what I think is a problem --- 10 inch I-beam !!! Not so much the I-beam but only 10 inchs! To big and heavy of a rig for such a small frame.
I said in a earlier post that I like the look (which I do)but that frame "not so much".
Another unit which I think looks at least as good if not better is the Redwood FL.

Just think? A few years ago a primitive computer took up an entire room. We have come a long way in engineering with everything. Oh with the exception of trailer frames and Cowboy Belt Buckles !
