You traded that in? What didn't you like about it?

It was great when my daughter went with us but with just the wife and myself we wanted the floor space and the chairs in the back, just a more open floor plan.

for you guys with TT, i'm looking for ideas on a bunkhouse version with a private master that has doors. Whatcha got?
You may want to check out any local rv shows in your area. I have seen some really good deals on brand new TT's from the previous year.

Just getting my wife to agree to go on a 9 day trip to try this out is a miracle, let alone buy one of our own.

A left over is definitely the way to go if you want new. The trailer we got earlier this year was a 2018 left over. Got a killer deal and it wasn't even at a show..

I can't foresee a new trailer in the next 2 yrs. Maybe after that. We need some experience first, and for my wife to realize it's not the worst vacation option ever thought of.

Towed around 6000 lbs Friday to the jobsite....then loaded dirt and unused granite for the trip back home (50 miles). This truck does light years better than my 2005 sierra did. Total load behind the hitch including the trailer was 7200 and my truck is rated for a little over 10,000. I could barely feel it.

My son bought a 2018 Grand Design 2670MK last fall for about $28k. Sticker was about $34k. But he had no time or leverage to negotiate. He only had 1 day to make the deal due to work. He works out of state and lives in it so needed it ASAP. Probably could have got it cheaper if he had more time to haggle.

Grand Designs are nice trailers. That's what we were looking at before we got the Aspen Trail but they didn't want to come down to the price we wanted. The Aspen Trail was so cheap, they made us buy it. We got it for below the NADA low book value. Now if I could just get that kind of a deal on a new truck...

My son needed a 4 season camper. There weren't many to choose from. He had looked at this one a few weeks earlier then took a vacation day to go look at it on a Saturday and signed all the papers. I had to go pick it up a few days later. He works 6 days a week about 12-14 hours a day. He just bought his 2018 2500 about 5 or 6 weeks ago and has put 6000 miles on it already. I had to go look at a few trucks for him, test drive them and facetime him so he could see them. When he picked it up the dealer came out at 8:00PM on a Saturday and opened the place up for him to sign and pick it up...lol

My 2005 Northwood Nash 4-season trailer. Getting a bit long in the tooth but she still works just fine and is still looks great, and these things are built like a tank and hold up well. Since nobody makes a 20' trailer with dual axles and four wheel brakes I'm hanging on to it and gonna do some updating this winter as we're doing a 4 state trip next year. Perfect for just the wife and I.

2 loads of sand to site prep a woodshed foundation. 1.9 and 1.7 yards. Trailer weights around 8.5k. Airlift 1000 at 35psi, E range Coopers at 45psi. Factory brake controller at 4.0 heavy electric, works great!

16 foot big Tex dump trailer, max payload is 9500, trailer is 5500.....I stay pretty close to that. I have been overloaded at a combined weight up to 18,000 which put me over GVW by 2k....(didn’t find out till I hit the scale) at any rate G56 pulls like a dream!

Here is a pix after we crossed the Top of the World Highway from Dawson City Yukon Territory to Chicken Alaska.
108 miles of dirt and gravel road with over 1000 ft drop off in some spots while driving through the clouds.

That would be awesome but don't think my little hemi could handle altitude like that with my loaded tt lol
