I've followed this thread - and the others about some of the early problems (perhaps) with the Elkmont (especially leaks). I'm a big fan of Trailmanor - in fact many of the owners on this forum are using the checklists I compiled -- but color me a curmudgeon for feeling that if I'm going to pay $30K for an Elkmont why should I be climbing all over a ladder replacing all the roof caulk so the unit doesn't leak? If I wanted leaks - I'd stay in a tent, and not spend $30K of my hard earned money.
I'm still a fan, and think TM makes one of the finest products out there for the camper -- but I sure hope the factory has licked the leak problem - if there really was one - because the Elkmont is the one my wife wants - and after more than 8 years of looking we are finally ready to buy.
