Is a Grand Design RV Right for You?

Grand Design Quality and Inspections

Grand Design towable RVs are very popular and known for their excellent construction, but Grand Design isn’t the right manufacturer for every RVer. We want you to have the facts you need to understand how these RVs are built, so you can decide for yourself if Grand Design is right for you.  

Grand Design Features

1- Lamination: 

Grand Design laminates the rear walls, slide walls, slide tops, and even slide bottoms of their fifth wheels and most of their travel trailers (the Transcend Xplor is an exception as it is a stick and tin camper).

Grand Design also uses high-end materials and processes to ensure stronger lamination.

2- Dual Seal Technology:

Water is the biggest threat to a camper’s value and integrity. Grand Design’s sealing process is one of the main reasons their RVs tend to hold their value better than most campers.

Grand Design uses Titan dual-seal technology to help prevent water from entering their campers. The dual-seal is made with Mylar tape and PVC die-cut seals.

3- Insulation:

Grand Design’s insulation quality is top-notch. Each of their RVs, from the stick and tin starter travel trailer to the luxury fifth-wheel toy haulers, is built with a four-seasons protection package to allow RVers to maximize the amount of time they can spend camping each year.

This protection package includes residential insulated walls (lined with fiberglass insulation), a heated and enclosed underbelly, an insulated roof, and an insulated front wall/front cap.

Grand Design’s Transcend Xplor has slightly inferior insulation compared to Grand Design’s other products, but compared to the industry standard, the Transcend Xplor still beats out the competition.

4- 300 Point PDI

Every single Grand Design RV goes through a 300 point PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection) before it ships out to the dealership. This inspection results in fewer issues, cleaner campers, and happier RVers.

Grand Design has spent more than $3.8 million on this process since the company’s inception in 2012. They are the only RV manufacturer that has done this inspection consistently on each and every camper for the past 10 years.

Jayco has also recently implemented a PDI process for all of their RVs.

5- Customer Care After the Sale

Regional Traveling Technicians:

Grand Design has regional traveling service technicians throughout the US (soon to include Canada). These technicians are equipped with everything they need to fix any sort of problem with a Grand Design camper. Grand Design RV techs can even make immobile campers operational again.

Exclusive Repair Centers:

Grand Design has also built three different service centers solely for customer repairs. Grand Design has built these service sites to keep up with and resolve the problems that keep campers from experiencing the great outdoors with their families.

Grand Design Warranty

Grand Design RVs come with a one-year limited warranty and a three-year structural warranty.

The limited warranty covers the entire RV against all defects caused by the manufacturer during the construction process.

The structural warranty protects the owner from any defects in the structural material.

These two warranties protect you from any damage or mistakes that happen while the product is being made.

These warranties do not cover damages from misuse, commercial use, or lack of maintenance. Grand Design recognizes that issues come up, which is why they only partner with dealerships they trust to take care of your RV and get you back on the road again quickly.

Pros and Cons of Grand Design RVs

You need to know the benefits and drawbacks of Grand Design RVs before you decide if one of their RVs is right for your RV adventures.

Pros:

  • Construction quality and pre-delivery inspection process
  • Customer service
  • Resale value

Cons:

  • Limited options: Grand Design only builds towable RVs. If you’re looking for a motorized RV, you can check out Bish’s selection of motorhomes.
