Thor Brands Standardize Power Stabilizers
Lippert Components has announced that several of Thor Industries top towable manufacturers, including Keystone RV, Dutchmen RV, and Crossroads RV will feature LCI’s PSX1 Power Stabilizers. will feature LCI’s PSX1 Power Stabilizers, or other electric leveling, standard on all brands starting with the 2020 model year.
LCI’s PSX1 Power Stabilizers eliminate manual cranking. LCI’s PSX1 Power Stabilizer utilizes a singular motor that operates the two stabilizer legs independently, meaning when one leg finds the terrain surface, the other leg will automatically adjust to match the other’s height.
“Including power stabilizers as a standard feature is a true game-changer,” said Jason Lippert, LCI’s president and CEO. “RVers have been using manual scissor jacks since the birth of our industry. There have been so many innovations in the RV industry since then, but yet here we are, still using manual crank jacks. The auto industry has made similar moves towards power and convenience. For example, consumers would be hard pressed to find a car in today’s market that comes with a crank down window. We believe the RV owner deserves better, and more importantly, future RVers will demand better. These three brands are truly leading the industry by putting their end users first, and we’re proud to support these industry-wide innovations.”
PSX1 Power Stabilizers feature anti-rust, heavy-gauge steel with a durable powder coat finish, and a waterproof switch kit. Furthermore, the improved braking system helps prevent side-to-side movement.
“The addition of power stabilizers or leveling across all product lines is a huge benefit for dealers and owners of Keystone, Crossroads, and Dutchmen products,” said Jeff Runels, Keystone RV’s president and CEO. “We are excited to continue to lead the industry with features that make camping easier and more accessible for buyers at all price points.”
