well. It's decision time

Just unofficially sold my TT. I have searched the world over and found two campers that I'm looking at for my first 5er.
Just wanted some feedback. Which one would you buy?

This one is clean but needs a set of tires. $4000

This one is clean and apparently doesn't need anything. $5000

A little nervous about the taller one. I'm pulling with a regular cab long bed powerstroke so HP's shouldn't be a concern.
Both are already outfitted with gooseneck adapter which I needed. Gonna go look (after this dang 20inches of snow melts) at the one I get the most votes for here guys! Thanks for all the great help here.

  • Terry!
    Many pros!
    Newer, Fiberglass sided, slide, and the biggest for me...not parked in one spot for a long period for things to grow under it and rot the underside. Just guessing, but the jayco would probably need a brake overhaul.
  • Terry. I use to have that same truck.. It will handle it easily. Hight no problem at all. Just watch out for the trees. :-)

    Thats two for the terry! Thanks.


    Make it three for Terry, the difference in space with slides is awesome
  • Without really look at either one in person I would go with the Terry. Slides are awesome.
