I'm rady to upgrade from tmy hybrid to a TT within the next few months. This is what I'm looking for.

-Less than 30ft.
-7000lbs or less (Vechile towing capacity is 7,500lbs)
-Bedroom with a door
-Bunk beds(with the bottom bunk being full sized)
-A slide will be nice if I can stay in the weight limit

Thanks in advanced

This is a huge market with lots of brands that are well known. You have units with laminate 1 piece walls and units with "hung walls", wall thickness from 1" to 2" thick and warranties from 1 year to 2 year + a structual warranty up to 5 years.

Some of the better units, IMHO are the Crossroads Sunset Trail. They have a lite weight construction, crowned roof (not flat like others), hung 2" walls, real plywood (not a foam and laminated floor), 2 year bumper to bumper and a 5 year structual warranty.

You will also want to look at the North Trail light weight made my Heartland. These have similar premium construction methods to the Crossroads, checkout the North Trail site on Heartlands main page, they have a picture/video show that rips apart the construction mentods of others.

Good luck!
