So I've been looking at tons of trailers. There are so many nice ones out there. My family has finally settled on a floorplan and now I'm trying narrow down which brand. My top choices are (in no particular order):1. Keystone Premier 31BHPR2. Cruiser RV Shadow Cruiser 313BHS3. Coachmen Freedom Express 310BHDS4. Heartland Wilderness 3150DS5. Jayco Whitehawk 31DSLBThe Jayco Whitehawk I found is a 2013 model so I can get a better deal on it. But the floorplan isn't perfect as it has less room in the bunkhouse.Can anyone give me insight or information on those brands/models? Anything I should stay away from?BTW TV is a F-250 PS. Thanks!

From the ones you mentioned, I'd go with the Jayco. Most Jaycos I've seen/owned just seem to be built a little better than most others.

Take a hard look at the floor plan. Modifications may not be all that easy later. Also double check the suitability of the TV.

If you are already questioning the Jayco floorplan then stay away from it. The sour taste of not having the floor plan you really want will stay with you long after the joy of getting a good deal has worn off.I have no experience but general consensus seems that RV pricing in California is quite high compared to the rest of the county. Many people have driven to the Midwest to buy from RV Wholesalers, Holman, and others and saved upwards of $5k doing so after travel expenses.

Edited original post to include TV. Should have done that from the start.I need to go and have a look at the floorplan of the Jayco to see how much different it really is. I really just want and area where the kids can have their own space to play or relax. I wish I could take the time to drive to RVWholesalers or Holman, the furthest I could realistically go is maybe Oregon, Utah, Colorado.

We went with a 2014 Jayco Jay Flight 32TSBH and it has a huge bunk room in the back. We got it with fiberglass siding and love it. We also liked the 32BHDS but it came down to the dealer having the 32TSBH in stock first.
