We are transitioning from a Select Suites to a Mobile Suites. The Tradition is built on the same 12" I beam frame as our SS, but our SS is more like a Mobile Suites than a Tradition. The SS has the same 3.5" walls, where the Tradition has 2" walls like all the rest of the RV's besides DRV. We have been very pleased with our SS, but would not go with a Tradition. Just go through any Mobile Suite and then go through a Tradition. You will never be satisfied with a Tradition after seeing a MS.
While we are pleased with our SS, I will tell you that we had quite a few problems with it in the first few months of ownership. DRV reimbursed us nearly $3000 for problems that were fixed by mobile techs and different dealerships for warranty work. We are fulltimers and are not going back to our purchasing dealership anytime in our lifetime. All we have to do to be satisfied with our SS is to visit friends in their SOB's. Our SS is very much like a small home. We are going to love our new 43' Atlanta even more!!
