[QUOTE="tom4018, post: 1350165, member: 55"] We did a double wide about 14 years ago, set on a block foundation. 2 x 6 walls and full OSB wrap. So far it has been pretty good. Roof shingles were probably 20 year shingles that made it about 10, I guess the baseball size hail didn't help them or the vinyl siding and windows. Had just a light switch or 2 give problems and maybe one water leak. I wish the interior walls where better, some homes are. My biggest worry is how the roof structure is going to hold up long term, I guess time will tell. We bought one with the heavier snow load rating and heavy insulation package. I think it is pretty efficient. Roughly 1500 sq. ft. and electric everything averages $125 a month for a family of 4, heating and cooling. We do use some gad logs in the worst of the cold and for emergencies, last years was about $130 in propane. So $140 a month for heating and cooling total. Might have been a mistake but we did what we could at the time. Old farm house was rough, need more room. [/QUOTE]
