Back from a 2500 mile trip to TX in our 26HE. Performed well, got about 7.5 when we kept it between 60-65. Going out was a bit windy and we were inexperienced driving, but by the time we got home we were very comfortable driving it.
If you are going for a test drive, find a narrow road. See if you feel comfortable. That is the real test. Anyone can drive on the interstate.
The 26HE's all have the TV front and center. It really has little in, common with the larger Vista/Sunstars. It has a much shorter wheelbase, which affects handling, but also makes it very maneuverable.
Your idea for a 12 V TV in the back makes a lot of sense. There really isn't a good way to watch it in the front.
Overall, we like it a lot.
