Coachmen Freedom Express 246RKS
I've been shopping for a new TT and like the Coachmen Freedom Express 246RKS. Anyone have any experience with this model, any comments about it? Thanks.

We got a 2016 248RBS in June. LOVE IT!!!!!! Planted it on a seasonal site so I can't comment on towing. The outdoor kitchen is an awesome feature but wish the awning covered it. Many positives, roomy bathroom, great layout, plenty of storage, ducted air. Furnace and air are away from the sleeping area so it is quiet.
I will list the down sides and minor issues we had just for you to be aware of.
Tight walk around the bed , but we knew that when purchasing
Minor leak in outdoor kitchen drain
No indoor counter space (get a stove cover)
CATV connections were all loose
Needed to foam in all openings in the floor to keep rodents out ( I can help you with that next spring) some spots are not easily accessible.
The shower head is mounted way to low (we are short under 5'5") so for a taller person this could be an issue. installed a mount up higher.
There seems to be a drainage issue with the black tank, doesn't dump all the paper/ solids and clogs sometimes. May be a level issue as the rig is perfectly level . In the spring we plan to inspect the drain fitting with a camera. Got around it by using a mascerator when it fails to completely drain.
Not trying to steer you away from this model as it has a lot a great features and a layout. I would purchase this model again and highly recommend it. Just making you aware of some minor issues we had. Great choice, enjoy it.
