2003 vs 2005 U320

We currently have a 2003 U320 3820 that we like but have run across a 2005 U320 4020 that we like the layout better. I was wonder if there was anything we should be concerned about on a 2005 model? I know that is about the time Foretravel was having financial difficulties. Has anybody heard of the quality being compromised during this time frame?

btw, this for forum has been amazing for me. I have been able to search and find answers to many issues. Thanks to all who make this possible and share their knowledge.

We looked at a couple we really liked later than our 2003 but the slide was almost crinkled looking where they used too much vacuum on the fiberglass during construction.    I've seen several like that.  It's real obvious on the ones with that problem.  Some of the later coaches had dark colors that were a problem after being in the sun a few years. 

2003 is my favorite year I think but some of the later ones had great interiors.
