Thank you all for your wise replies. After much discussion with hubby this morning, and measuring an area in the backyard to store the unit, we are now leaning towards a used FW. We have a 2015 F-250, 6.7 turbo-diesel, supercab, longbed. Any suggestions as to a good used FW? Brands, models, ones to steer clear of? We prefer a floor plan with a rear kitchen, at least one slide-out or more, no bunk beds as we will only bring two grandchildren at a time ;)
Thanks so much for your replies.
We had a Montana and it served us well. They're very popular, you should be able to find a good used one I would think. Are you sure about a rear kitchen? Being at the end of the trailer there will be a fair amount of "bouncing". I'm just throwing that out there, to each his own. I'm NOT saying they're bad just something to consider.
Pay attention to the slide outs, can you access the fridge, the bathroom, or the bedroom WITHOUT having to put one or more of the slides out? We picked our Montana because we could get into the fridge without having to slide out for making lunch on the road, same for the bathroom and bedroom. It's not necessary but may come in handy. Again personal preference, lots to think about and consider.
