We have a 2002 Coleman Utah, We have had no problems with ours. Fits our family of 4 perfect. I find there is plenty of storage. DH has never had a problem towing. We have added the camper caddie and vanity mate to ours, great items. 1 thing I like about it is the the swing level galley. I have read about the ABS roofs, our roof was re-placed after purchase for a non ABS so I am not real sure about them. I have seen a lot of them out there that have had no trouble. It would be something to read about. Good luck with your decision.
The outdoors is a wonderful place to be....

Is there anything wrong with it? We had great luck with both of the Coleman PUP's we had. That's a great price for a 2000!

I have a 2001 Utah, Although just upgraded to a 35' class. You are getting a great deal if you ask me. We really like the trailer and have no problems with it. The main reason we upgraded was for the convience of setup.

We purchased a 2000 Utah about a month ago and we love it, we looked at new Fleetwoods and Jaycos, we preferred the Fleetwood but still could not justify the 17k for a new Arcadia.
Having sold our Coleman Columbia (to the smithsonian) we love this Utah, lots of room and in trailer "facilities" negate the need for 2am freezing hikes into the forest. The swing down galley is nice, beds are large and very stable. I am 6'4" and 310lbs and me my wife and our 3 sons fit comfortably.
There is a crack in the ABS "strata" top and looking online they do tend to have issues and I am working on a fix for ours.
All in all a great camper, pulls good but starts dancing over 70mph, sway bars fixed that however.
One word of warning, there is a 2000 Utah on Craigslist for 2,300.00 one owner, non-smoker still smells new etc., looked at it seriously until we made some calls and found it was a scam.

Have him put the camper down and see if the roof sits even all the way around the top of the box, if it doesn't it has the dreaded roof sag
