Well he was able to check out the Winnebago Trend. After him looking one over we've decided it isn't the right rv for our family. We did however go to one of our local rv dealers & spend quite some time looking and sitting several different rv's both class A and Class C. We are pretty narrowed...

Thanks everyone. It certainly seems not a common feature. I know many people take children in motorhomes. I'm just not sure how they are securing car seats.

Hi. We are still in the process of narrowing down an RV for our purchase. We currently have a 2004 Arctic Fox truck camper. We are interested in moving to a small class A, B+ or C. Our top pick right now is the 2014 Winnebago Trend (Itasca Viva) 23L. Our reasons we like this model: the size, a...

Thanks! My husband will be in CA for work & there are 3 around there for sale. He's going to go check them out & drive them.

Just came across the Trend/Viva. Finally thought we'd found the "Perfect" rv. We have two children & the shoulder belts on the bench are perfect. Also, the drop down bed. Both huge selling points. I've read reviews & people seem to like them. However, reviews on the Ram Promaster are not...

Thanks folks, great points. I think we found the Heartland video you were talking about. Lots of stuff we didn't know like that the fridge is 3 way and the freezer comes out. Very cool. Here is the link to the one we found to leave a "breadcrumb" for anyone coming along after us...

Well, I think we have finally narrowed down our choices of a travel trailer. We are down between the Heartland Edge M22 or the Rockwood 2306. Well, to be totally honest our first pick would be an Airstream 25, but between our tow vehicle (2006 Jeep Commander 7500 lb tow capacity) & that we have...

Thanks for the response. I suppose to each their own but we don't quite agree with some of your figures. As stated we are looking for a TT UNDER 5500 lbs, and hope to be in the 4500 lb range. The GVWR of a TT is predicated simply by the axle capacity. The weight that matters is the ACTUAL weight...

Hello ~ I am looking for any suggestions on tt. My husband really likes the Pacific Coachworks Tango 257BH. But, I would like something a bit shorter. So, here is what I'd like to find. Not really sure it exists ... Under 27 ft.; under 5500 lbs (pulling it with a 2006 Jeep Commander with a...

Hi all, New to the board. Thanks for all the great info. My wife, son, and I are going to head out (from NW Arkansas) for a couple weeks toward the end of this month. We have a family reunion to attend in Morganton, NC. We are planning to stay a couple days in the Smoky Mountain NP with our...
