I was an owner of a 262rlx, up to Feb 2013. Last year we traveled out West for nine weeks and found the unit worked for us. However in Feb we traded up. The reason we traded was: limited storage, wanted a larger bathroom, 50 amp service, 16" wheels, more windows on the curb side, more counter space, quieter A/C, more room for the grandkids. The Denali was our first 5th wheel so after two years we know what we liked and would change if we did change. It worked because we did not want to sink a lot of money into a unit and then not like RVing.
What did we like: the Norcold frig, Carefree Colorado awning, TV, stove/oven, the way it towed, and it being 30/31'.
If you like the floorplan, look at the Crusader 27rls. Our new unit is a Crusader and I can see the difference between the two in construction. So far I'm very, very pleased with the Crusader. I think it has "value", not the most expensive, not the least expensive just nice.
