FINDING ONE

Findable: a few listed nationwide most weeks. Why: Thor Motor Coach is a volume manufacturer; only one model year; still in production; an uncommon body style. Estimated from build volume and production span, not a count of live listings.

OUR TAKE

Mid wet bath and a rear fold-up bed over a gear garage - the Scope for people who haul bikes or boards. Smallest tanks in the line, so plan on shorter dry stints.
