This will be our 1st MH after living in a stick built tri-level for 30 years. We are looking now at Palm Harbor and Skyline. We are looking at the 2000+ feet models. We have found one in each line that my wife likes. It appears after much searching on the internet and this forum that the process can be complacated. I am looking for the best built home plus the best service and warranty. Palm Harbors 5 year warranty is appealing. I would appreciate any direction from the experts that are on this forum. I am thinking of getting the book from Randy? I am sure it would answer a lot of questions. I did use one of his items about headers over the window and door casings. They should be double or more. The PH has 1 and I have not been able to find out about Skyline. Thanks for any info

After much research, I believe Palm Harbor is or one of the best homes out there today. I am purchasing one as we speak

Dutch Housing out of LaGrange, IN is by far one of the best homes. Not only are there double headers at windows & doors there are triple headers at patio doors & picture windows! ! ! ! 2x6 sidewallls are std on all models.
