2016 to 2020 Less than 35’

I have owned an old Carri Lite, and a 2000 model Cardinal when our kids were young. We are retiring and want to make some trips before we are too old or health fades. I have a 2025 Ram 2500 6.4l v8 with 32k miles and a barely used 2014 Cummins 6.7 that is very road worthy.

It’s been so long, what do you all recommend for a budget of 25 to 35k in the year range of 2016 to 2020?  Also why is a lot of the furniture peeling in these 2016 and 2017 models?

I used to hear Montana’s / Jaycos were tops but I have been out of the loop forever.

Thanks in advance.

  • You looking at 5vers?  You didn’t say. But I can’t imagine a 10 year old travel trailer fetching that much money unless it was something special. 
    Rather open ended question for sure. 
    And the furniture peels because that’s what super cheap vinyl does.
