I've replied to several threads asking about buying older trailers, trailers that have been in storage for an extended time, trailers under $5k, and so on. In some of them, I've threatened to post pics of mine once I got it cleaned up.

I purchased this after several months searching in the middle of summer two years ago. It needed a lot of little things, but nothing major (other than new tires of course), and nothing I couldn't do myself. I was sold almost from the moment I saw it because of the great cosmetic condition. Given the shape it was in, I knew that it would be worth investing some time/money if need be.

I had seen this floorplan online in another brand, but didn't think I could find one my old 1/2 ton could tow. What I really like is that the bedroom is an actual room with a door, and that even tho it has no slide, it has a "living room" area in front of the sofa. It feels much roomier sitting on the sofa in this than in the ones where the sofa is across the trailer and has the dinette and counter just a couple feet away.

Anyhoo, for those with smaller budgets, there are nice options out there. Just take your time looking and don't settle for something that doesn't fit your needs.

Dry weight is listed as 4850 and GVWR is 6720 so it is 1/2 ton towable tho that point is moot now with the 3/4 ton.

Nice score. We found something similar in a fifth wheel this summer, they are out there if we keep looking and are patient.
