Travel Trailer
Help! Too many brands to pick from. Looking at Puma Palomino. 28rkss. Any advice on a new trailer this size?

First of all, you need to look at a lot of trailers from different manufacturers and not only look at the floor plan but really look for differences in quality of construction and fit and finish. Personally, I'd buy better quality used than entry level new. Based upon our experiences with our 2014 Minnie 2201DS (a smaller trailer), consider taking a look at the Winnebago Minnie 2606RL:

Or,look as some of the trailers by Grand Design which is now owned by Winnebago. Although now owned by Thor, take a look at Jayco trailers. When we bought the Winnebago, we also looked at Jayco trailers but liked the features of the Minnie line more than the Jayo lines.
And, you may get more helpful advice if you supply a little more information as to how you plan to camp/travel, number of adults and kids, etc. For kids, I still like the idea of a hybrid with the ability to have a more tent-like experience when possible. Being older (soon to be grandpa), we like the comforts of our MH, but I still have great memories of camping with the kids in a popup trailer.
If you can find a slightly used quality trailer, and then be happy with it for 5 to 6 years or more, you will save a lot of bucks and those bucks can be used for traveling and camping.
