I am not even sure if this is what you call it but I was reading a post on another forum topic here and they mentioned they bought a used Endeavor. Wanting to see what they look like I googled it and went to the manufacturers website which of course had the new models.
Looking at the 40 plus footers, there was one floor plan that showed a slide coming out and within that slide, it extended further. Thus the reason I call it a telescoping slide. I have never seen this before and it seems quite practical in the sense that it adds more square footage to the RV and makes it more like a conventional room in a regular house.
My question is, is this something new in the industry? From the posts I have seen here, slides seem to be troublesome, or at least more so than other components of an RV, so I was wondering if this added variable would increase these problems.
Does anyone have a slide like this.
Sorry if I sound like a geek but having an engineering background and loving to do research on RV living, stuff like this excites me!!!
By the way here is the link, it is the 43PD5 floorplan:

Thats something i have never seen, assuming it is the first year that this option is introduced, i would be cautious . The regular or traditional slide does not create problems any more than other RV systems, but this new double slide looks to me like there could be some design challenges, i would like to see more detail on the system, G

Never saw anything like it before, but quite frankly, don't know what the purpose is. Why not just make the slide that deep to begin with? From a structural viewpoint the entire depth has to be supported any way, why have an additional joint? BTW, although slides are occasionally a problem, I don't know anyone who would consider living without them. As more and more people begin fulltiming I would expect them to get even deeper.

I don't see where there is a slide within a slide? I see they are pointing out the nightstands beside the queen bed. Is that what you are seeing? I do see there are "opposing" slides, one on each side of the bedroom. If I am not seeing what you are, what RV campground would allow something that was that wide? The older CGs are configured for no slides. Newer CGs are mostly for opposing slides, making the sites comfortable for a rig approximately 14 ft wide. Having something even wider just doesn't make sense. Help?

On the 43PDF its the Refer/Booth Dinette/Sofa slide. That whole unit slides then the Dinette and Sofa slides out some more. I guess as long as it is within the confines of the space you are staying in, it is ok.

Ha!!! I see it now. The 43PD5 does extend the sofa. Never saw such. Wonder how they support that? Oh well, HRC used to be a super manufacturer. Since Thor, maybe not so much. Hope it works well. Wonder if it is as bad a lump raiser as the BR slide on my 5er. One guy called me "Lumpy" one day after three "collisions".
