I really enjoyed looking at the pictures of the factory as well. Thanks.
Laying flooring like that sure speeds up production, but it makes replacement a hastle.
Now, $600 to add an electric lift mechanism is worth considering. I'll have to replace a couple of torsion bars first probably.

Casey -
It appears that they have gone back to white paint but with black trim. Do you recall seeing any white-on-white (old style) units? Probably too soon for them to be doing anything but the basics.

A moat? So that is their security system. Kinda makes modern tech moot.
Sorry, couldn't resist.

Sure, put them up. These folks have an interesting life, very different from ours. I find the communal nature and the simplicity interesting, and if they are like other Anabaptists I hear about they will take pride in their work and will endeavor to get it right. I am not a religionist at all and wasn't ever any sort of Christian, so that part is very foreign to me.

Here are some more pictures.
The first picture is the best of the entire area. Farm buildings are to the right. The TrailManor factory is the second building to the left. You can just make out the Trailmanor logo. The commune living buildings are Center back although you can’t see everything because of the trees.

I thought LarryJB was meaning that he needed to spend the $$ on new torsion bars before spending $$$ on motorizing his slide. Not that he wanted to motorize the lift mechanism.

The lift is not electrical the slide out is what is electrical. They determined it was easier to lift than pull out the units with slide outs.
