Thanks Katoomer. I think I saw another one of your posts and looked into Newmar's. Seems all of the DP's with bunks are very hard to find before 2013. Either it means that they just didn't make many... or people like them so much that they don't want to give them up. I agree that it will probably take closer to 100k to find one.
Being that this is our very first MH -- or camping rig of any type -- I think I am much better off trying to find a gasser around $50 to start. If we like it we can always move up in the future. And if we hate it hopefully we can get out without losing our shirts!
Thanks for the advice!
Chris
