Any input on this company and model with triple bunks and dinette slide. Interested in the 07 or 08. Dont know if it has changed 07 to 08 to 09?? If so, are there any major changes.

The cost seems a little higher than the average similar TT, does the quality match the cost??

Posted a question earlier on the TV needed for this TT, and appreciate the feedback. Essentially, I gathered that one would need a full size SUV or passenger van. (If pickup not wanted).

I would be planning on a prodigy brake control, and Reese HP Heavy duty stabilizer/weight distrib.

TIA

I have the T-271 model. Had it for about 1.5 years and have had no problems. I do see where some areas were miscut then made to fit kinda. Ours have triple bunks with slide out kitchen and sofa. So far I am very please and it pulls great. Price was 16,700 out the door. I purchased a 2006 in march 07.

Check out the Jayco Jay Feather 254 sleeps up to 9, queen bed, queen bunk, and a bunk over the top, sofa bed and dining bed. It is 26'9" 5900lb loaded, and is 700 lbs less than the Palimino, same length when towed, but the Jayco is 4 ft longer when set up to camp. Just an option to consider!

Palimino has been around for 40 years, just like Jayco, and they are both great companies, building a quality product. Jayco has a 2 year warranty compared with the Palimino's one. Jayco has 17 standard items that are options on the Palimino, including Jayco's Carefree Electric Awning, real oak doors and drawers, and a 25" Sharp LCD tv. Just more bang for the buck...but you won't go wrong with either.

Palomino is a great company! If you check my profile, you will see my family has a Palomino product ourselves.
