A little dated but when we first began our RV search we were still working {1989}. We began the searches during our vacations, first to WY, KS, MO, IN, and a couple I forget. This was done over a 3 year period and was very interesting.
After this period it came down to two brands, Teton and Hitchhiker. After doing the pro and cons routine it was Hitchhiker Champagne. Our first one was a 1991 40ft which we began fulltime in 1996. Then trader for a 1998 38ft which we still have. The tours was what convinced us to make our choice.
