I took a hard look at the Grand Design trailers, but the Lippert frame killed the deal. I was already trading in my Keystone trailer because the frame could not take the long dirt roads I drive to get to camping spots. I wan't going to buy another nice looking trailer with a wimpy frame.
I ended up buying a Nash 22h -- Part of the Northwood RV line. Outdoors RV is equally sturdy. My trailer is heavy - it's pushing my F150's capabilities. But it came with the big tanks, solar capability, and sturdy trailer I needed.
Also, think about length. I know I cannot get a trailer longer than 25' into some of the camp sites I really like. Your scenario may be different.
Did you actually look at the GD frame?
I just looked at one, and the frame is massive.
My present TT also has a Lippert frame, and it is very heavy duty as well.
Lippert builds the frames to what ever the manufacturer specs. If a manufacturer specs a weak frame... That is what they will get.
I didn't. By that point I had found the Northwood RV dealer in town and had gone that direction.
