So you are here for advice on buying a travel trailer. That is a good start and you'll get lots of great advice here (along with some silliness, of course). Whatever you finally decide on, my recommendation is to check into purchasing it through Costco. I did, and saved a couple thousand dollars over several local dealer's "best prices", and was about the same as the local dealers wanted for two year-old used trailers. In my case, I had to drive out of state to pick it up, but for me it was worth it. Just use the following URL: "www.costcoauto.com/rv/" Click on "locate a dealer" then enter the unit you are looking for and they will match you up with the dealer nearest you. In my case it was Colerain RV in Dayton. OH. I had a fantastic sales person! She (Amy) was excellent, it was a ridiculously easy transaction and the service folks were very thorough during the inspection process. Buying new, but at wholesale pricing, allows you to use a new trailer for a year or two and trade-in or trade-up without the typical risk of a big loss. Be safe and Happy camping!
Colerain is a good dealer with locations in Cincy, Dayton and Indy. I read about a lot of people who drive long distances to buy from Indiana and Ohio dealers. I'm just use to having many good dealers to pick from within a two hour drive. It helps living in the middle of where the majority of the RV's are made.
