Cool reading, and good responses so far. However, I think some are missing the point of what the OP was trying to ask here: If you could have/get ANY RV trailer you wanted, money NOT being an object, what *Trailer* would you get?

He/she didn't ask if money were unlimited, how/where would you put the $$ (land for campsites, hired hands to help, fuel for camping, newer TV, etc.).

Perhaps a better way to ask the question, would be like this:

If someone handed you a blank check that you could write for literally any $$ amount you wanted, only catch being *all* of it had to be for the purchase of a new trailer (nothing else)...What would you buy?

My answer is still the same: I'd have a trailer custom-built exactly like we want, by a company thats known for building very high quality units, someone like New Horizons. Reality is it would not be *that* much different than what we have now, but I would change the floorplan around some, and spec out some real solid construction, and some high quality stuff inside as well...

I don't know what top end trailer I would get because I have not researched them... however, at the next price point I would get a Tango which would necessitate a larger TV... Which Tango would be determined by at what stage of life we were at...

I understand that Teton Homes and Alfa 5vers are something else! I've never been in either one of these, though.

The upper end MHs are nice, too!

To deep for me. I think he asked his question just fine. I just think with this group you are going to get theses types of answers from you know those types of people that are you know off subject Just looking to push there own agenda. Like someone using this to get a free Jayco shirt .

I could not be any happier with the rig I have right now regardless of money,an Airstream is a real "traditional" TT but they just never did anything for me.But I"ll take all that Lotto money and put it in a FUEL account!

Instead of being critical why not sit back, read and go on the theory that everyone read and understood the post and most are happy with what they have and wouldn't change a thing. Just because you would have a lot of money making it a "non-issue" doesn't mean we would change.

I'd buy a gooseneck stock trailer with living quarters to use as a toy hauler, and a new diesel truck to pull it with.
