Ok, so if I'm looking at this 2012 23SS, what *are* the downsides compared to a TT?
Outside noise, more condensation, setup and takedown.
How much work is it to pop open the beds and prepare them?
Takes us about 10 minutes to setup or take down, and we don't have cables.
Are high winds a threat (what is a PUG?)? Nope, PUG= popup gizmos Popup Gismo's
Is the lack of insulation on the canvas sections a load on the HVAC?
No
Now some generic trailering questions:
What's a CCC?
The campground we go to frequently on the Chesapeake has "quiet time" between 10pm and 7am. That means I can't even run my EU2000. AC won't run off a battery pack, I assume, so I guess I would need to rent a site in the RV area to use the hookups there?
Personal preference, you want to run AC at night you need hookups.
If we didn't care about the AC, can the fridge run off on board batteries, or is it propane powered?
Runs off the propane, but also needs 12v to work for the electronics.
Would a 23SS come with an inverter, or should we be prepared to add one? Brand and size?
Again personal preference, most do not have inverters installed. They come with a converter, inverters are normally aftermarket items
Can you just load up bikes and luggage inside for the trip, or should they be properly secured?
Some do, we put them in the pickup bed.
More to come, I am sure. Thanks again for all the great advice!
