We bought an '03 Frienship Quattro new. I've had to repair or replace several items that I would suspect any MH owner would. Nothing I would consider specific to the Friendship. Have replaced the controller on the steps, dash heater valve, two slide toppers, furnace curcuit board, toilet flush valve, vent fan motors, overhead windshield fans. All in all, normal wear items. We have 36,000 miles and tires are starting to show rot. Infact, blew an inside rear tire on the way to Florida in January. The only real quality issue I have is with the paint. It's peeling in several places. I had a body man look and he said the clear is cracking and peeling then the color goes after. The paint on top of the mirrors is completely gone. Going to replace with chrome ones. If I have to get the whole unit painted, I'm going pure white. Easy to touch-up. I've got to say, I love the unit and figure it requires the same maintenance as the brick 'n stick home. Good luck and enjoy!
