can a real hardwood floor, one that is nailed and glued down be installed in a mobile home? or is a floating floor better? i am planning on putting in hardwoods, but have heard that may seperate at marriage line when home settles

Hardwood as well as laminates are often installed in manufactured homes. If the home separates at the marriage line from settlement, the home is not set up correctly. When footings are correctly sized, poured, installed etc. the home should not separate nor settle.
