Hi hburns, welcome to the forum!  We recently traded our 2011 Coleman Utah for a 32' travel trailer. It was a bit sooner than we planned, but so was our growing family (from 1 grandchild to 3!). The Coleman was just too small when we had the whole family camping with us - even with a tent on...

Hi All, thanks so much for all your help with all my questions. Here's another one:  First off, we have a 2013 Coachmen Freedom Express 292BHDS and we tow it with a 2009 Ford F150 FX4. My question is about the break away cable - where does it hook up (and how) onto the tow vehicle?  Currently...

I am a newbie with a 32 footer. My question is:  when we put it in storage in between camping trips, should we put the stabilizers down or leave them up?  On our old pop up we left them down and raised the front a few inches higher so any rain could roll off. Should we do the same with our 32...

Oh, I'm so excited that I will now be able to have microwave popcorn while camping!!  We have a new trailer and it has a microwave oven.  I currently use Orville Red.... light butter (and then I drizzle my own butter on it!)

Hi Amy, my husband and I just bought a 2013 Coachmen Freedom Express 292BHDS. It has 3 bunks in the back, the two top ones are rated up to 220 lbs; a queen size bed in the front, a queen size sofa bed and a dining room that can sleep 1 or 2 depending on size. Before we bought this one, we were...

Hey Limey, thanks for the great information!!  We took the trailer out for a bit of a test tonight and maneuvered it and parked it a few times in a couple of different flat parking lots and I watched the wheels. My husband even got out and I sat in the driver's seat (first time with the trailer...

Correction:  it called "Wide stance Stable-Ryd" not "E Z Tow Dual Axel".

Hi everyone!  We recently picked up a new 2013 Freedom Express 292BHDS. We brought it home from a quick weekend trip and when we were backing it up into its storage spot, I noticed the wheels looked crooked; I mean the front wheel looked IN about an inch further than the back wheel; like they...

Haha!  That's exactly what we did!  We opened ALL the beds (the pull out sofa bed, the dining room bed, and of course the queen bed) and I lied down on all of them!.  It was funny, but I was serious!  We weren't going to buy it if we couldn't have our adult kids sleep in it!

Hi tbonebrown!  Welcome to the forum. I am also a newbie!  I just read a good thread about leveling - I don't know how to add the link here (yet) but if you search for "setting up bubble levels" you will get a lot of information. Good luck!

Hi Cheryl, the outdoor kitchen was a MUST on our list. We had a 2011 Coleman pop up that had an outdoor stove and we used it ALL the time. I probably only used the inside stove once. I like the large sink and the large faucet too (not something that all brands have; some have tiny sinks and...

Love it!!!

We just picked up our new 2013 Coachmen Freedom Express 292BHDS (last Thursday)!  We love it!!!  It is the perfect floorplan for us. I just looked at some pictures of the Dutchmen Kodiak 290 BHSL and the floorplans are very similar. But its not really fair to compare the one I saw online to...

We JUST (this past Thursday) picked up our new trailer!  We have been looking to upgrade out 2011 Coleman Utah pop up since early spring. We were looking at weights and lengths and floor plans!  We looked at ALOT of trailers. We finally found the right one for us (2013 Coachmen Freedom Express...

Congratulations!!!
