Default Roadtrek warranty change?

I just happened to look at the Roadtrek site today and noticed their "news" section, which has a new warranty policy listed as of August 2015, posted on the 25th of August.

Roadtrek Launches Six Year Peace of Mind Warranty | Roadtrek

I think it is mostly the same except it includes appliances now, and it now EXCLUDES the AGM batteries. Does include Ecotrek batteries. The warranty on the batteries was one of the things that Hammill always pushed as reason not to be afraid of etrek style setups, so losing it for AGMs is going to force a lot of folks into the Ecotrek, and of course higher bucks for Roadtrek.

It really isn't surprising, I guess, from what we have seen of the AGM setup. I don't see how they could ever last 6 years if used much at all, and this is probably a good time for Roadtrek to get out of warranty on those type systems going forward. It says it went into effect Aug 1, so I hope they told folks that bought after that they just lost their battery warranty Mumkin just picked hers up, so I hope it is OK.

Just another step toward being the too high priced class b leader, I fear.
