Thanks for the feedback. In regards to the “positive “reinforcement for purchasing any Rv there has to be always be one negative nancy.
I think we will go see it this weekend and get a better idea. I just wanted to make there wasn’t a better performing brand that I may have over looked.
Thanks!!!
I think moving from a tent into a hybrid is a great step forward. We did it 4 years ago and never looked back. You still get the "tent" feel but with all the added luxuries such as a bathroom when you need it. The only pain I can think of is having to fold up the tent-ends in the rain, but you learn to deal with it. And yes, there is some maintenance required, but that goes with ANY RV and as long as you keep on top of it, you will have many years of enjoyment. Added bonus, (depending on where you live) you can extend your camping season. We're up in southern Ontario and we go camping well into the end of October.
If you're unsure, buy something that's a few years old before investing a large sum of $$. If you find that it's not for you, you can always re-sell and get most of your money back. If you buy new then you'll be stuck or take a big hit on the price.
IMHO, solely based on some of the posts here and other forums, the older units were built better than what's out there today. My trailer is 16 years old and knock on wood, I had less issues with it than many with new trailers.
Best of luck!
