Anyone have Intel good/bad/ugly on a 2011 5th wheel Zero Gravity?
You are correct lippert does supply a lot of frames for trailers. The problem was eclipse undersized their frames for the weight of the trailer. And they did not stand behind their product.Lippert supplies allot of RV manufacturers the trailer frames.
I can believe that. But name an RV company that stands behind anything. Once your out of the driveway they don’t give a shit. None of them do.You are correct lippert does supply a lot of frames for trailers. The problem was eclipse undersized their frames for the weight of the trailer.

Um... read my response again slowly.Do some Google search and then you’ll believe it. They’ve changed the size of their frame they’re using a larger frame now.
I agreed with you how is that a pissing match? SheeshIt’s all good not trying to get in a pissing match have a good day.

Looked at new Attitudes at the RV show this year.....Yuk! looked and felt like crap inside... Genesis / Vortex felt much better to me. Will be going with them once we iron out some future plans.
Get a hold of @dirtyduner
I agree. But Genesis is getting pricey and Eclipse has way better floor plans IMHO.
Eclipse builds Attitude, Stellar and Iconic.unless Eclipse is a lesser model than Attitude I found it to be the opposite between genesis and attitude.
anyways good luck with the search.

Different strokes for different folks is all. I’m looking at the big bumper pulls mainly. Genesis really sucks in that area. They don’t have any dual slide models where Eclipse has 4 or 5

What do you know about the 28IBG and 3016GS? Those are the ones I’m looking at.Older (2013 and older)
Have not heard of newer ones having that issue
The 3222’s are different all together, look underneath at the side supports.
Another reason to go big in bumper pulls, the mfg.’s can’t skimp on frame steel with 30’+ frames.
Eclipse toyhaulers owners chat
pulling the trigger on a 16’ 3222 swg Attitiude
17’ to first cabinet, twin lithium ion batts.
only concern is Eclipse installed a bunch of smaller than advertised grey water tanks in 14-18 models of all sizes.
Trick is to get a water flow measuring meter off amazon and fill it.
Eclipse will replace under warranty.
The supplier of tanks screwed up and shipped smaller tanks under the larger capacity model number.
The eclipse chat FB group has a lot of good info. On the trailers.
For SO CAL dealers new it isAttitude is not exclusive to Giant.
that is interesting I feel like my gray tank and black are smaller than advertised. I fill them up fast much faster than any other toyhauler I’ve had
For SO CAL dealers new it is
please show us a dealer in LA, Riverside , San Berdo counties that sells attitiudes?
Giant has the deal to only sell them in those counties.
Norco Rv , Mike Thompson , Richardson’s, DDRV all sell iconics and stellars for a reason
Not a big deal as stated they are all the same

With a bumper pull I can get 16’ of toy storage plus 8’ of the bed of the truck.I have a bumper pull TH and was looking into a 5er instead. What do you like about bumper pulls over a 5er? Interested in hearing your thoughts.
hah!
O
hah!
You can tell Kevin Flores at Eclipse he lied.
He’s the main contact for warranty issues with Eclipse
Of note, hesperia and Palmdale are over 50 miles from any Giant Dealer
Call Eclipse and I’d wager a coors light there is no new attitude closer for sale to a Giant dealer for a reason
Major Rv is definitely worth checking prices at vs giant, at least it was a few years backFirst you said Giant was exclusive, then you said by county now miles???
I would imagine any dealer that wants to carry an Eclipse product can do so. It just wouldn’t be very smart to carry the same product as your competition down the street. Hence the Iconic and Stellar.
BTW all I hear is Giant RV horror stories.
They are way cheaper. But here is the catch, no service department. When I asked how they handled warranty issues they changed the subject.Major Rv is definitely worth checking prices at vs giant, at least it was a few years back

That's a deal breaker on any new RV. They all need warranty repair at some point.

Not arguing. You have provided useful information and I believe I have as well.Obviously you just like to argue and that’s fine end of the day giant has a dead deal with the clips to be the only one in there is service area to sell attitudes
There’s some sort of deal for sure at the end of the day I’m buying used and hopefully the kinks are worked out because the interest rate was lower than what anybody was offering new and I’m saving about 20,000 so it works for meNot arguing. You have provided useful information and I believe I have as well.
You stated the Giant had an exclusive deal I proved otherwise. Either someone lied to you or you haven’t looked around. Maybe they do have an agreement of some kind neither you or I could give a shit right? Price and service is what matters to us correct?
Also where do you put the chairs with the island and the slide closed? The hallway? If you stop to use the pisser the chairs are in the way? Lame.There’s some sort of deal for sure at the end of the day I’m buying used and hopefully the kinks are worked out because the interest rate was lower than what anybody was offering new and I’m saving about 20,000 so it works for me
The biggest confusion with eclipse models is all the letters for models. I just know I wanted one without an island as I think it’s ridiculous when the slide in his closes, that you can’t open the refrigerator on most of the island models

I want used as well but finding a floor plan to make the wife happy is not easy.

Striker/cougar makes a nice toy hauler however they don’t have three axles on their 30 foot. I’m a big fan of three axles for several reasons. There is a used 3222 in El Cajon however the roof appeared to be bubbling up and it only had one AC and there were permanent tire marks on the laminate floor in the kitchen already and it was only a 2018
Correct, i was out at both factories back in May, The lippert driver came to drop off frames at Genesis on Monday, I was at Eclipse on Wednesday and the same driver was dropping off frames at Eclipse.Lippert supplies allot of RV manufacturers the trailer frames.
Why don’t Genesis make duel slide bumper pull trailers specifically the 27FSCorrect, i was out at both factories back in May, The lippert driver came to drop off frames at Genesis on Monday, I was at Eclipse on Wednesday and the same driver was dropping off frames at Eclipse.
We are a dealer for Attitude, Stellar, and Iconic (same trailers, different funky ass names) Eclipse really isnt pushing the Stellar line much anymore, i would say in the next 6 months it will be down to Iconic and Attitude. We are also a dealer for Genesis. There are some things where Eclipse murders Genesis, but a lot more things on these trailers that Genesis is the better product. Seeing these things everyday a few things I really like about the Eclipse is the flloring is thicker and actually bonded (really durable) The furniture is more comfortable, the lighting kicks ass, the countertops are bigger and more usable. Things I dislike about eclipse, their slides are deeper (makes it really difficult for wider SXS, but great when parked) On all the Widelite 5th wheels their is a step into the bedroom and back down into the bathroom, the battery they use on their 5th wheels is funky. It is really nice that they still produce the triple axle bumper pull 32IBG or 3016. That being said, I have pulled a 32IBG triple axle, and a 30CK double axle genesis and the Genesis pulled better because the weight was distributed better.
Great Trailers though!
