Thor Axis 25.5

We looked at a Thor Axis 25.5.

It had an interesting feature on the twin beds. One slides out to meet the other. We think we would modify this to slide out part way to leave a small walkway to get to the bathroom but still have one bed be larger for the dogs. Unfortunately it was not a power slide like the Sunseeker twin bed. Overall the set up was much cheaper than the Sunseeker. But it could still work. We would have to remove all the bed foam as it was horribly uncomfortable and have custom latex foam mattresses made for the twin bed and the newly almost full bed. But I think it would end up being very comfortable and functional.

We did not like the table leg holders. Odd plastic pieces (guaranteed to get lost) had to be pried out of them every time you use them.

In the back closet where the tables were stored you could see daylight at the corner. Not very encouraging regarding the build quality.

The sofa was reasonably comfortable but on an annoying slide so it covered the table holes. We would want to put in more table mounts so the table could be up when on the road.

Shower was very roomy at 30x36. Annoying fabric curtain. Weird flip up shelf behind toilet. If you flip it up you can't use the toilet. So who would do that? Better to leave flip up off and allow toilet paper or other storage to be there.

Front passenger seat left foot room was cut off a little. Plenty of room for the seat to have been mounted further back. Not sure why they didn't do this other than trying to keep it even with the drivers seat and choosing chairs that don't slide very far back to save cost.

This may be a good compromise unit. Cost about $73K so not much value for the quality of components and workmanship.

Test drive results:
The steering wheel and the drivers seat were not properly lined up. Found the passenger seat left foot room was too restrictive for comfort. And the loveseat cushion bottomed out when going over minor bumps on the expressway.

ccc = 3011 lbs Big plus!

Edit: We saw another 25.5. Loved it more than before because we figured out we could just add more holes in the floor for better table placement. Three quality issues with this one. Generator ground strap was loose, snap for one of the door partitions was poorly positioned so couldn't snap and one of the cabinet handles was installed unevenly. We also noticed that we both hit our heads on the overhead bunk when entering or leaving the cab area.
