Default Are all 2001s Aluminum frame?

Mine's an '01 Towlite and I'm just curious as to if it's got an aluminum frame. I've seen posts that say they swithed to aluminum in '01. Wonder if it's all '01 models. I think mine was manufactured in late '00. But is called an '01. I guess I could remove some skin and look and see but would rather not! Thanks

I think they are as I remember looking when I bought mine. Check the library for the brochures on o1 and oos to be sure-

Actually just looked at '01 brochure and shows the frame being tubular steel. Just as good I guess, just heavier.

boater,

Try sticking a strong magnet to the side of your unit. This might help to determine aluminum vs steel. Just a suggestion.................
