I think I am still leaning toward the Creek Side or one of the Outdoors RV line trailers. I've got a 2000 Dodge 2500 Diesel that has a towing capacity of 9400# but I still want to keep the weight down if I can. The small things that I find not to my liking can be changed out to suit what I want relatively easily. I do all of my own repairs and modifications, except for replacing major things like walls and panels. Their chassis and frames off set the minor issues I'm looking at. With our 2011 Heartland North Trail I had to reinforce the underside of the shower, replace the water pump, repair hinges on the cabinets and have the front bonded panel replaced because it separated in about twenty places all in about a year and a half. Of course when I contacted Heart Land all I got was sorry its out of warranty. Had to contact the Pres and they finally provided the materials to fix it but it still cost me over $900.00 to have repaired. It was like pulling teeth to get them to do anything with that issue, so of course I won't buy another Heartland product.
I've done all the repairs on my Timber Ridge as we're several thousand miles from the nearest dealer. The guy I've dealt with has been very good about sending replacement parts under warranty after sending in a photo of the problem.
