Help me with choices of new TT!?
I have narrowed down my search for a new TT for us. We are newbies to this and will be my husband and I and our 3 small dogs. We want the best TT in our price range we want smaller and like bunk desig...

All I can say is I have a 2003 Fleetwood Prowler Lynx 722F and bought it brand new in July of 2002 and still own it to this day and it's been a very good rig for the most part. To date, I have not had an appliance fail on me yet.. Knock on wood!
It did have some initial stuff that got fixed under warranty, but that was just a door fitment thing and a shower drain thing..
Also, some cabinet door fitting things, but I fixed those myself..
Other than that, after the first 2 years of owning it, I ended up fixing all those things AGAIN myself and I haven't had a problem with them since I fixed it myself.. I have also made a lot of "custom" changes to make it fit our camping style over the years as well..
So, how good of a DYI person are you?
Can you handle basic home repairs yourself?
Do you mind yearly maintenance routines or will you hire that kind of stuff out?
I fix a lot of stuff around the house too, but do know when to hire out a project if I can't or don't want to tackle it.. Just ask the wife! ha, ha..
Anyway, just about any "RV" out there that does not cost in the mid 6 figure range is gonna be your most cheaply built unit out there...
Been doing this "RV" thing for some time and they are all basically ****... But, I have had the best times of my life doing it and would not trade a second of any of that maintenance time, or repair time, or paying the invoice time for the time I have spent in my "RV".. :)
Good luck!
