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.
A little late in replying....
Thanks for the offer of relaying the info in the 2009 brochure. I was just poking around looking for info and I actually found a PDF version of the 2009 brochure! That is what reminded me I never replied to your post.
So I printed off the brochure, in color, yeah I used up a bunch of color ink but I don't care! :B 20 pages of it.
I am going to be very actively looking for one this year and I think by summer I should be able to see my way to upgrading to the Tango I have been wanting for a long time now!
Thanks so much for you help. I appreciate that.
