2015/2016 models with 2 baths, bunks choices
We have been narrowing down our choices for a 2015 or 2016 Class A Gas. With our family makeup, etc.., we require either 1 1/2 bath or 2 baths, along with bunks (needs to sleep 8 to 10). I find these ...

Just got back from two days in the Dallas/Fort Worth area looking at all those I listed, along with two Class A toy haulers, The Thor Outlaw and Newmar Canyon Star.
Of the models I originally listed, the Winnebago 35B was my choice for several reasons (quality seemed slightly better than the others IMHO, and a few just personal preferences like shower size vs the Georgetown, etc..)
But, I surprised myself and actually made a deal and deposit on a 2016 Newmar Canyon Star 3921 toy hauler. Though I don't get the 2nd bathroom I thought I wanted, it just felt like the right choice for our future uses.
To start with and the Main reason(though you do pay for it in a $20,000 to $50,000 more price compared to my list), the quality just seems quite a bit higher on it compared to any of the others. I was really impressed with the quality of materials and workmanship throughout.
Secondly, though the garage will come in handy and keep me from having to pull my motorcycle trailer behind the motorhome, the garages many potential uses seemed very desirable to me. Be it the 2 full queen (one is even larger than that) bunk beds that will be great for both kids and I feel adults over say small dinette sleeping. Or, secondly, the way the bottom bunk bed (you can raise up the top one for very nice headroom) converts to a two facing each other benches with a large table between to make a very large (6 good sized adults) picnic table eating station. (I think this will be our main dining area on all trips).
Lastly, raise up both bunks and lower the tailgate and there is a screen that comes down to cover the large opening and you have a screened in porch area for those buggy nights while you sit and enjoy the evening outside.
I now have to anxiously wait the couple of weeks to get back down their (7 hour one way drive for me) to close on it and bring it home!
