I was in BC's Okanogan Valley 2 1/2 years ago for a friends mothers 80th birthday.
I stayed at a CG in Oliver BC. Late that evening after I got there and set up, a guy came in dragging about a 29 foot Tango TT.
I instantly fell in love with it and began doing research on Tango TT's. I helped guide him into his spot in the dark and he was gracious enough to give me a tour of his rig. I was so impressed with everything about this unit.
Love at first sight is all I can say. Not sure why I picked on that one when there are so many wonderful rigs out there but that is the one I fell in love with and to this day, remains the one I want.
I have a '09 299bhs and so far it has been trouble free. Bought it new. I did replace the tires and went with the wet bolt kit and Dexter EZ flex. It makes a difference in towing.
As an aside the Arctic Fox R insulation values (a well insulated trailer and fifth wheel) are R7 in the walls and R 18 in the roof. R values are a number but I am not sure they tell the entire story.
You might look into a good clean 329 model as it has a large (for a TT) bathroom, two slides, a separate kids/den room and a huge living room. And, it weighs 10,000 gross. That is my favorite model, it is 34 feet long, or about 3-4 feet longer than what I have. After about 30 feet a couple more feet does not make much if any difference in towing. The front nose cap is great.
Good luck in whatever you decide to do. I have a 2009 brochure so if you need some info on a model pre the new owners and if it is in the brochure I can relay that info to you. PCW also made a few models of fifth wheels, also nice units.
