New Rockwood Signature 8335BSS
Hi everyone,
For the first time since I joined this forum in 2006, I am changing my signature block, and I’m posting in the travel trailers forum instead of the 5th wheel forum. This past summer, my wife and I bought a 2020 Forest River Rockwood Signature 8335BSS. Now that the kids don’t camp with us anymore, we decided that it was time to get a trailer that’s a little nicer and more designed for the two of us, as opposed to a family of 5.
Used it 3 or 4 times last year and so far we love it. It’s big, at 36 feet long, but we’re getting used to it. I find it easier to back up than the old 27 foot 5th wheel, but I find that the towing experience is a bit more challenging.
A new truck will be in the budget in a couple of years. Until then, we will likely keep most trips to within a few hours of home, due to the age of the truck (2004), and the fact that things are starting to go on it.
