I've looked at the Trailmanors and the Aliner Expeditions and, to be quite honest, I'm looking at the Expedition. The TM's just seem much too antiquated in their finishes for my liking.
I think you'd love the Aliner Expedition. We have its poor cousin, the Ranger 15 and love it (same size, a few fewer features, less expensive)! I'd avoid dormers though, because there have been several reports of them leaking; we got an Aliner to avoid canvas in the first place. We also have the Cool Cat heat pump and love it (you must have electric hook ups to use it). If you camp in warm/hot weather, it's a must; it's 11k vs. the standard 5k standard unit. If you camp in cooler weather, the 5k a/c will probably be okay. Also add a furnace if you camp in cold weather. The Cool Cat will only work down to about 40 degrees at best.
We also have the built in cassette potty, which is awesome! It's SO much better than lugging a porta potty around, and it's very easy to empty. We chose not to get the shower option, because it really cuts into the useable square footage of an already small camper. We camp at state and federal parks with no sewer hook ups for the most part, so going to the bath house for showers isn't a big deal. We take an over flow tank along to capture gray water.
