Title: Travelride Start Date
Post by: Dave Head on April 24, 2016, 10:10:38 am
I'm trying to remember which was the year of the new travelride chassis.
This is important because the the old chassis wasn't designed for 4 slides.

"Foretravel's innovation is evident in its exclusive TravelRide chassis. This superior design originated in 1987 when Foretravel engineered and manufactured a fully monocoque chassis deemed the Unihome. The newly designed chassis provided maximum storage and superior ride and handling which is one of the many characteristics that sets Foretravel apart. Any Foretravel owner will tell you, "The ride and handling is what makes a Foretravel a Foretravel." The Unihome chassis stood the test of time for twenty years, and it was not until late 2006 that it was re-engineered and the TravelRide chassis was born. For the ih we have taken the TravelRide chassis a step forward. The ih rides on the TravelRide II chassis, the best handling, most stable chassis we have ever produced."

So we have the "Unihome" chassis starting in 1987. I presume the Unicoach chassis is essentially the same.

The "TravelRide" chassis was born in late 2006, and the IH (starting in 2007?) has the "TravelRide II" chassis.

What are the essential differences between the "Unihome," the "TravelRide" and the "TravelRide II" chassis designs?
