I nearly bought this rig at the rv show in hershey, pa this year. Great price at the show. I like the 261bh, it's comparable to the jayco jay flight 26bh, but the jay flight 26bh has a plywood roof and a roof ladder, bigger fresh water tank capacity, black tank flush and other options.
The coachman has an osb roof and i didn't care for that. Inside it's very nice though. We really did like the coachman 261bh.
It is 7000 or 7500 GVWR though and over 29' long and that is a lot of trailer for a half ton truck. That's one reason i held off on the purchase until i got a 3/4 ton truck.
My 15 Silverado would have pulled that coachman, but with all the gear, passengers and tongue weight i would have been at or over my payload limit.
I don't know what year your half ton is, but I'd check your weights when you have time to see where your at weight wise.
Congrats on your purchase. It's a really nice rig.
