...I still had a hankering for another towable RV but I was trying not to spend money!
There are so many different trips I'd like to do that would be more suitable to me if done in a truck/trailer instead of the rig in my signature.
A friend put the bug in me about another towable when he started getting hit with "SOS" (shiney object syndrome) in February of this year.
That gave me a serious case of SOS. We both were interested in the Blackrock 20RD, until he showed me the Creekside 21RBS.
I ended up being the research guy since I work not too far from the local Northwood / ORV dealer. I tromped around in the snow looking at RVs. Then the snow melted, then it snowed again, and melted, and froze in to nasty ice at the dealer.
I got so fed up with the snow, I made a road trip 4 hours away, and visited Thompson RV (where I bought my 22H) in late February during their open house. It was a last minute idea to go there, and a relief from fresh snow fall in Spokane, and warm weather down south.
All the models I was interested in were on display at Thompson, and I didn't have to freeze and slip on ice to look at them!
The 18RBS looked tempting. It was a shortened version of the 21RBS.
The price of the 20RD kept prying at me though... but the small table at the U-shaped dinette was a bit small for spreading out my junk and using it as a desk.
I had looked at the Blackrock 18DB a lot too, it was the same layout as the discontinued Nash 18L. Eventually I realized the corner bed on the 18L would be annoying.
