From Factory

What are options you would like to see available on a new rig right from factory? Or something you wish your rig had.

I'm on the opposite boat. I wish BMPRO was an option.
I would like to delete it.

The all season installation package, 2nd AC unit and the largest gas/electric refrigerator available. I would never invest in a dealer solar option. You can spend the same money dealer charges, install it yourself and end up with far better equipment and Aton more in charging panels.

The only reason I agreed to the upgrade my DW wanted was because there was no BMPRO on the new camper!

Maxxair or similar roof vent covers, shoe cubby holes under the bed in the Seneca 37K, air dump on the dash for low clearance areas, factory freightliner fog/driving lights standard just to name a few.

A 2" accessory hitch on the rear. Some of the other builders are already doing this. And agreeing with above about roof vent covers.

A self cleaning black tank is probably asking for too much.

I would like to see a couple of more interior color schemes. It seems like some have settled into white cabinets with some drab looking fabrics. I'm old fashioned, and like wood and some color.

A Fan-tastic style fan as standard in the bath, along with a decent shower head would be nice also.

I think OnTheGo already has a self cleaning tank. Like ours, I clean it my-self!

I would settle for a correct MSO so the title is right.

Disc brakes, heavy duty axle upgrade. (Or the could just start using adequate axles.)

Disk brakes would be great. Those extra rubber bounce stops in axles. More seating in a unit that sleeps 10. But I love my Jayco

Quick connect hoses for water, multi filter water filters, optional solar systems (more than one) for boondocking, dinette that big guys can fit into and lastly bigger tanks black grey and water and propane.

What if you’re not able to? I had mine installed yesterday 2 270 amp Battleborn batteries with 6 190 watt panels. I love it and I can run everything

For gas class A motorhomes, I'd like to see various suspension upgrades occur at the factory.

Be it whole hog with an extra $20k added with Liquid Springs. Or the patchwork of sway bars, track bars, steering stabilizers, shock absorbers and torsion bars.

It sucks to spend so much money and then immediately be presented with $10-20k to make the RV behave better on the highway.

Heavier axle and suspension - my original came to something like 160 pounds to spare. Galvanized wheel wells as I ordered and was supposed to have from Jayco, but what I received was the first Thorjayco and it came with plastic wheel wells.

However, I got a basic trailer that I could keep basic or design and modify and customize until it was perfect for us and that is what we have achieved over the years. And that was half the fun. We've got a really nice little trailer.

Better electronics! Furrion and Jensen are crap! Samsungs are at least intelligent and reliable.
