What's new for 2014?

The biggest thing I have noticed is LEDs strip lights standard option on awning or on side wall under awning.

The most useless thing I thought about those Axis A's is that they have 3 tv sets...main, bedroom and outside...I don't even use the one in my TT...these days, I watch tv shows and movies on my iPad...the bathroom with it's triangular corner shower looks to be about the same size as in my 18' Chalet Takena 1865 TT....so I could live with it....at least it's a dry bath whereas some of those B's on the Mercedes chassis usually don't have that....It's also clever the way they have the folding door of the washroom open out into the hallway to make the area for changing etc. much larger...

We toured one of these at the Tampa show a few weeks ago. It's interesting, but for most folks it just isn't too practical. The biggest "are you serious" issue that I saw was the bathroom sink. the vanity is a little pedestal, about 10" square with a micro sized sink bowl on top. It's like an airline sink, but smaller.

As for the Trailer market. We haven't really shopped for a few years, and things have changed a great deal. The market is in the 30 foot plus range for a lot of product lines, with 34-35' being real popular. The other thing was how much useless, and expensive bling was throw on many units. Lot's of useless Chinese crap, like keyless entries, fancy hanging ceiling fixtures, and other silliness. Nothing to find a unit with $5000 to $7000 of décor on the sticker.

DW and I walked around our RV show here in Regina on Saturday. Nothing really popped up other than an Open Range 5'er. The LX249RBS caught the eye of my wife but as for myself can't really say I was impressed with anything. We were in one trailer with a V nose and it had a huge desk along one wall - DW's eyes lit up and "Scrap booking" came out of her lips. One thing I wish the RV industry would do is standardize on their weights and measurements. It's so hard to compare units when they all have different standards. Great way to kill the afternoon and not think about cold and snow though.

A's are out of my realm of possibility right now. I did see some pretty fancy ones, but nothing at all set up for my family.

Maybe once the kids are older some of these floor plans would work, but right now the bunkhouse style TT is where it's at.

Nothing in TTs but in A's, there is the Thor Axis and Vegas RUV's....might be trading in my TT if they ever get one to my local RV store...
