</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law grants each corporation organized under
Delaware law, such as the registrant, the power to indemnify its directors and officers in certain
circumstances.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
registrant&#146;s By-laws, as amended, and Amended and Restated
Certification of Incorporation, as amended, provide for
indemnification of its directors and officers to the extent permitted by Section&nbsp;145.
Additionally, the registrant&#146;s By-laws and Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provide
that a director of the registrant shall not be personally liable to the registrant or its
stockholders for monetary damages for the breach of any fiduciary duty as director, except (a)&nbsp;for
any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the registrant or its stockholders, (b)&nbsp;for acts or
omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
(c)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time, or (d)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
registrant has also entered into or will enter into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and
senior officers. These agreements generally obligate the registrant to indemnify them for liability
incurred by them as a result of their services as directors or officers, subject to limited
exceptions. In addition, the registrant maintains policies of insurance under which its directors
and officers are insured, subject to specified exclusions, deductible amounts and policy limits,
against loss arising from any claim which may be made against any of its directors or officers by
reason of any breach of duty, neglect, error, misstatement, omission or act done or alleged to
have been done while acting in the scope of their respective duties.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except
to the extent set forth above, there is no provision of the By-laws, Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, contract, arrangement or statute under which any director
or officer of the registrant is insured or indemnified in any manner against any liability which he
may incur in his capacity as such.

is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">Ladies and Gentlemen:
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We have acted as counsel to Thor Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the &#147;<B>Company</B>&#148;), in
connection with a Registration Statement on Form S-8 of the Company (the &#147;<B>Registration Statement</B>&#148;),
being filed on the date hereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the &#147;<B>Act</B>&#148;), relating to the proposed issuance of up to 1,100,000 shares (the
&#147;<B>Shares</B>&#148;) of the Company&#146;s common stock, par value $0.10 per share (&#147;<B>Common Stock</B>&#148;), authorized for
issuance pursuant to the Company&#146;s 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the &#147;<B>Plan</B>&#148;). This opinion letter is
being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item&nbsp;601(b)(5) of Regulation&nbsp;S-K under the
Act.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have examined originals or certified copies of such corporate records of the Company and
other certificates and documents of officials of the Company, public officials and others as we
have deemed appropriate for purposes of this opinion letter. We have assumed the genuineness of
all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all copies
submitted to us as conformed, certified or reproduced copies. We have also assumed that (i)&nbsp;the
certificates for the Shares will conform to the specimen thereof filed as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and upon issuance will have been duly countersigned by the transfer agent
and duly registered by the registrar for the Common Stock or, if uncertificated, valid
book-entry notations for the issuance of the Shares in uncertificated form will have been duly made
in the share register of the Company, (ii)&nbsp;each award agreement setting forth the terms
of each award granted pursuant to the Plan is consistent with the Plan and has been duly authorized
and validly executed and delivered by the parties thereto, and (iii)&nbsp;at the time of each issuance
of Shares, there will be sufficient shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the
Company&#146;s amended and restated certificate of incorporation that have not otherwise been issued or
reserved or committed for issuance, and (iv)&nbsp;the price per share paid for Shares issued pursuant to
the Plan is not less than the par value of the Shares. As to various questions of fact relevant to
this opinion letter, we have relied, without independent investigation, upon certificates of public
officials and certificates of officers of the Company, all of which we assume to be true, correct
and complete.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, exceptions, qualifications and
limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that when the Shares have been issued and
delivered upon payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Plan and applicable award
agreement, the Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
