Good Morning Everyone,
I am looking for information regarding TT with a rear lounge OR a rear kitchen. DW and I were at RV and Boat Warehouse yesterday in Hamburg Pa and found a Timberland or Timberline Glacier 32 RL that we BOTH loved. (Miracles never End) It is a 2003 but I can not find ANY information on it anywhere. There are NONE for sale ANYWHERE except this dealer. I don't know if that is good or bad. (good meaning everybody is keeping them because they are great, or bad because they all fell apart ? haha) Can anyone make any suggestions AND OR give me any info on this model. I called the dealer back this morning and spoke with another salesman he told me they aren't making that model any longer.? I am looking to stay in the 30 -34 foot range. The other option we REALLY like about the Glacier was that there was a rear room (small but big enough) that could be used for a tiny office/t set of bunk beds for the grand kids IF they decided to go out with us.
You guys are ALWAYS A WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE, Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions.
Cheers
Now it is only Me, The Wife, and my dog. Thank God!

My advice would be to continue looking at different models. I doubt if you'll find ANY brand that DOESN'T offer either of those floor plan options. Good luck Skip
BTW: Don't misunderstand my intent. I know of nothing BAD about that brand just suggesting you look at a LOT of them before buying.

Try Tom Schaffers RV just down the road from BoatnRV. We visited a couple weeks ago and they had quite a few RL's there.

I think that you are talking about a Timberlodge TT. They are made by Adventure manufacturing. Try doing a search of the forum for a Timberlodge.
If you both like the floorplan, go over it with a fine tooth comb and buy it! You won't look back!

Thank You all for your replys. I will check out Tom Schaffers, my Uncle bought his 5th wheel there, and in fact I just bought a foot flushie for my current rig there this summer. I will be looking at different brands, without a doubt! I am DEFINETLY NOT locked into any one maker. I have had a 33' Coachman for about 15 years now and have never had any REAL problems. (Just old age stuff)haha The Timberlodge by Adventure surely looks like the one we were looking at. I know it did say Glacier on it, but don't know if that was a model. I had emailed Glacier Bay and a VERY NICE salesman emailed me back saying it sounded like the Timberlodge RLS. When I viewed the floor plan it looked like it. But we have time and aren't in any rush, so we CAN SHOP!
If anyone has any suggestions on other brands with that type of floor plan I AM ALL EARS!
Thanks Guys!

Be careful with Boat and RV and Tom Shaffer's. I think BOTH of them (ESPECIALLY Tom Shaffer's is OVER PRICED!!) I lived in Berks County for the first 28 yrs of my life and have had looked at RV's there several times, but always walked because they were over priced.
Do your homework, look up the NADA prices and make sure the units are solid. A few of them at Tom Shaffer's had some hidden damage I discovered when I was looking at them. It was NOT mentioned to me when the salesman first showed me the rig.
Be careful, good luck and happy camping.

Here is a question. I understand the interior, fridge, heaters, plumbing, etc etc, when purchasing a rig in a private sale, what do I need to look for? I guess what I am trying to say is wheels, wheel bearings, etc. If I purchase a used TT what am I looking for as far as towing. I am not saying this correctly I know, Sorry! Purchasing an older rig to tow, what hazards to I need to watch for. For example I have an 87 Coachman, IF I were to want to tow this,(parked at cg entire time I owned it.)(brand new tires 2 years ago and all lights work)
Sorry I can seem to get my question out right this morning. OK how is this if I am going to be towing do I have to buy a 2 year old or newer trailer to feel safe? What would some pitfalls be of an older trailer?

As others have said, other mfgs make a modle like that.
We have the JayFlight 28 RLS. Really like the floor plan and the large rear window.
Hardest thing we had to find was a trailer that had both a sofa and a dinnete that someone could sleep on. Both are 6 feet on this one.
Looked at a lot of others that had the loveseat size sofa.
Jayco isn't making the 28 this year but they have a 29 model.
