We considered both the 303 and the 337 but, as full-timers, the walk-around bedroom with full-width front closet and the bathroom were major deciding points for us. TucsonJim may chime in, but they went from a fifth wheel to a pull-behind because their travelling life style is changing. (And for those that don't know the story, their 337 fifth wheel was a total loss because of a fire that started in the truck while they were driving down the road.) One note of caution... get on the Grand Design Owners' forum and read the threads on the Lippert grease seal failures and how the failures affect the brakes. This has been a big issue - but easily fixable (and not a reason to give up on Grand Design). The GD forum is very active with a lot of good advice.

Thanks Rob!
I have visited the GD forum for quite some time and joined a week or so back. And as for the grease on brakes issue, I have seen it. Have a thread over there also where I was advised about the issue, what to look for, and to speak to my dealer prior to delivery. I thought TusconJim stayed with a fiver, just different floor plan?

Rob is correct. We went with a travel trailer this time. We wanted to get the storage back in the bed of the truck. I'm putting a camper shell (canopy) on the truck and I'm topping it with a boat loader and fishing boat similar to this:



I just got word that my camper shell will be installed next week, and that the boat loader has been shipped from British Columbia and is working it's way through customs.

I did buy another Grand Design product. We went with the 297RSTS which is a 34 foot travel trailer. And once again, I have the greasy brakes that Lippert just can't seem to fix. So they have sent me all new brakes and grease seals and I'll be fixing it myself so I know it's done right.
