We are looking for a bumper-pull floorplan with rear lounge or dinette with good rear windows and a front bed with front facing window, preferably shorter than longer.

Any comments on pros/cons of the following brands?

Are you aware of any brands other than these?

1. Rockwood 2604 (standard with front window)
2. Flagstaff 26RLWS (standard with front window)
3. Pacific Coachworks Panther 26RLSS or Tango 26RLSS (front window option)
4. Eclipse Milan 26RLSG or 27RLSG (front window option)

Thank you.

We have the Rockwood 2604. When you say front bedroom with window, I'm assuming you know that the larger front window at the head of the bed is covered with the rock guard, but is a 15 second job to open up. Ours is the 2604 NOT the 2604WS. At the time we bought ours we didn't even know there was the WS model, but would have chosen the standard 2604 regardless....didn't need the storage space, weight or extra $$ going out. We are completely pleased with it. It is loaded with storage, awesome bathroom with huge linen closet, the living area is large, very open and lots of windows. We did lose some kitchen counterspace in the move from our ROO 23SS, but have found we do things differently and it's plenty sufficient. Fit and finish have been excellent. No issues at all.

We tow with an '03 F150CC with 5.4, rated for 8000#. Dry weight on ours (2013) is 5585 and GVWR is 6629. Normally it's just DH and myself..DS #1 HATES camping. But if you combine camping with a trip to FL for spring training he's all about that. Enroute to FL last year with his wheelchair + plenty of other necessities I began to fret over our weight. We stopped at a CAT and fully loaded, but with only 5 gals or so in the FW tank, we were just a smidge over 6000#. We have the Blue Ox 1000 WDH and highly recommend it.

Now the bad news....Rocky may have a new home later today. We are moving to FL, primarily for DS's health, and cannot see using it enough to justify. Don't want to just park in the storage and let him deteriorate, so we're losing Rocky, but for the greater good. If you have not seen a good assortment of pictures, we have it listed on CL/Memphis, Nashville or Jackson, TN. While we know he needs a new home, we fully expect some weepy eyes seeing him go down the street.
