Searching for a new TT is pretty challenging when you consider the wide variations in builds and weights.Can anyone suggest a manufacturer that might have something close to what I'm looking for?We currently have a 2008 Keystone Cougar 29BHS. We'd like something similar in size. Maybe with an outdoor kitchen, and possibly with a second slide.That being said though we'd really prefer to stay fairly close in terms of weight. I just tend to be conservative on pushing the towing limits and such.Number for the Keystone I've found are Dry Weight 6,100 and Hitch Weight of 870.Any suggestions that would help narrow down my search would be really appreciated.

I might have found something that fits the criteria. Anyone know anything about Coachmen Apex line? Looks like they have a double slide out with outdoor 300BHS and less weight that our Cougar.

You already have a TT so you know three things have to match.+ Floor plan+ Tow vehicle+ Cost Most of the TT have about the same quality level. The high dollar units seem a bit better.Our personal preference is easy access to the bed, big bath, closet and pantry space, yet small enough to wind through street to find a quilt shop.

The hardest part is finding the weight numbers. Most dealers don't list these so I have to then pull up manufacturer pages.From what I've found recently the Coachmen...specifically Apex are lighter than most.

Check out these floor plans and specs from the Grand Design Imagine line. Several appear to meet your criteria:Grand Design Imagine Product LineJim

Lower hitch weight but the overall weight is more.
