I was a bit obsessive in my research of DRV defects prior to buying one and I don’t recall reading about any cracking of outer walls on slides. That is not to say that the outer walls are always free...

I am happy enough with my 2018 DRV to consider replacing it with another one someday. That said, I would never pay anywhere near the typical ‘discounted price from MSRP’ and would instead buy a left...
