Our First TT, will it be a hobby nightmare?
We are 2 weeks away from buying our first TT and we are not sure if this will be a nightmare or everything we dream about? We have our own business and can work from the office or a cruise ship, so...

For our first TT trip we rented, 10 day of towing later we had a very good idea of what we really wanted in a TT. It was not cheap but education rarely is.
Remember they do require maintenance and the value depreciates very quickly. TTs are a very poor financial investment.
TTs are what they are, a small house on wheels built as inexpensively as possible. The plumbing is plastic, the sewer septic tank travels with you, the electric is part 12 volt DC and part 120 volt AC. the frig is small, the hot water heater is 6 gallons or so. Still it is a life style that many enjoy.
A bad trailer is the luck of the draw; the industry sells over 300,000 TT tow behinds and 5vers every year and has for several years. The public in general seams satisfied as they asks for nothing better or are not willing to pay for it.
Floor plan, TV and cost all have to be part of the game plan.
Good luck, but remember buying an RV is not a race.
