Thoughts on 2018 aspen trail 2340

I'm about to purchase a 2018 dutchman aspen trail bunkhouse but seeing some mixed reviews. Need your thoughts....
  • I had a 2012 Dutchman lite. Nice trailer and well built. I would still have it if it wasn't for a flood.
  • .

    Stay away from shaky dealers, those with bad reputations. Ask around, there are reliable dealers around you just have to find them. The only one that I don't like is Camping World.
  • I keep seeing on sites that the majority is just thrown up in a hurry so they all have their issues. And I read a bunch of negative reviews on the the couple of dealers that I might go through so now I don't know what to do.
  • We had a 2004 Dutchmen Sport Lite. It was a darn good trailer. Very well built. Don't know how well built the new ones are now though.
  • At a max height of 11’ 3”, it’s pretty tall. Be careful around trees. Fresh water tank is a bit low but holding tanks are good size. Loaded you’ll be 7000 to 7500 pounds with a hitch weight of 1000 to 1100 pounds. TV up to that?

    Interior height is 6’10”. I don’t see an issue. https://www.pleasurelandrv.com/product/new-2018-dutchmen-rv-aspen-trail-2340bhs-713174-29
  • Thank u! I'm 5'11'' so I should be okay lol. I plan on doing an extensive inspection. I'm upgrading so I kinda know what I'm looking for.
  • Good trailer, but if you are tall the ceiling head room is low everywhere. Best to do a personal inspection before purchase.
