Beginner searching for a trailer
Long story short, my wife and I have started the search for a travel trailer and are searching for advice!
Our plans are to use it as a transitional home while we move to San Diego where we will ultimately be moving onto a boat and keeping the trailer for recreational use. We plan to live on it for around a month or so during the move and just some road trips otherwise. My tow vehicle is a 2017 Chevy Silverado Z71 with the 5.3 V8 and I was thinking we should keep it under 7000#. We are expecting our first child prior to the move and hav a 50# dog. We aren’t massively concerned about cost but that is always a factor. We want good bang for our buck but aren’t really looking for anything fancy.
Any brand recommendations (really interested in this question)? New vs used? What to avoid or look for? Any experiences with a Murphy bed? (My wife wants a walk around bed but is worried that a Murphy may not be very comfortable and doesn’t offer a lot of options to replace the mattress and is one more thing to break)
