Any advice on our first purchase?
We are new here and are looking to purchase our first camper and are looking for any advice! We are considering three different travel trailers with similar floorplans, all used at the same dealership...

ontheroadwego,
Any one of three you are considering will be approximately equal. Pick the one that "feels" right. Two of them won't give you that "ah ha!" feeling. Consider the 3rd one.
About length. My Outback is 35 1/2 feet long. I don't have problems getting into any State Parks in Indiana. We camped in Wisconsin and Minnessota with our 31 footer, and had no problems. Granted, some campgrounds may have smaller camp sites, but if you check their web sites or call for reservations, there is almost always some sites that will accommodate you. You just have to do your research and maybe make reservations well in advance to get the right spot. Length has never been a problem for us. With truck in tow and the carrier on the trailer bumper, I am right at a total of 60 feet. No problems, finding campsites for us.
