Thanks to all.
Couple thoughts:
1) logos were removed last fall, so we're stealthy now;)
2) current camper is in nice shape, but at 10 years old we expect to see increased repairs in the next few years. We've offered it to some family members for a fair price, with the thought that we'll upgrade to a newer trailer if they buy it.
3) when we upgrade to a newer unit, we've found a couple floor plans in the 32-34 foot (total length) range that we like that still give us the sleeping functionality we need while allowing us to shave 5-6 feet from our total length and we would "be legal" in almost all states. 5-6 feet won't make much difference in maneuvering, but it won't hurt.
If they don't buy it, we'll keep the trailer we have and tow it:)))
