If they like that floorplan, Take a look at the Kodiak 175 Cub by Dutchmen. You can get one of those for the same price and it is a much better trailer. First, it is 8 feet wide instead of seven so you get a 41 inch wide bunk in the back vs about 32 inch, 15 inch wheels, tortion suspension, over 1K carrying capacity, camera ready (if you needed). The door set up in the back can also allow you to put bikes back there or other stuff pretty big. That extra foot of width give you a lot more room as in a decent four person dinette vs the skinny two person. Nice windows. These seem to be a very nice set up. I actually have the Aspen Trail version for like 13K that is virtually the same for like 4 or 5K less. I flopped the axle for more height. The Kodiak is much nicer than mine but I didn't want to spend the extra five K and there were none close. Mobile Fleet? Any comments on the Dutchmen? Seriously, I'm interested in your opinion.
OH, of interest is that they changed the interior of these half way through 2018. The earlier version has a smaller regridgerator under the counter and a lot more storage and the smaller sink leaving a lot of counter space. The newer version has the big refrigerator taking out all the pantry space and a huge sink that eats up the whole counter. So, depending upon what you like and what is located within range, you could have two choices on the 175 Cubs. I prefer more space and less fridge.
