NuWa

George,

Just go to NuWa and get yourself a Hitchhiker NuWa has forgot more about 5th wheel trailers than DRV will ever know. NuWa pioneered the 5th wheel concept and have been building 5th wheels for over 30 years.

They use a Youngs welding frame which is the best in the business. Except for a brief period when NuWa go the same illness that DRV has and went with Lippert junk the Young's frames have been flawless.

As for the Lippert frames I've got one of those lost camber frames that Lippert provided and that DRV decided to use under my 09. (no quality control in the frame department at DRV or Lippert).

As for defects sure in a large complex trailer like these there is going to some trouble that I expect if the automobile manufactures operated like DRV they would all be belly up.

As always good camping
Joyce and Jerry
