The 20 footer was would be perfect for 2, and the layout for 2, the small had a queen and one set of bunk beds and the table was a fold down to a bed. We slept 6 in the 20 footer was tight in bad weather when everyone needed to be in at once. But that heat and fridge, plus microwave and stove sure was nice.
If needed they are less than 5 minutes to hookup them up. It’s never a bad thing to know what the worst is. I was impressed at how well it tracked and that the 2 axels are far enough back that the tow vehicle recovers from the bump before the trailer axels hit it. This trailer has larger tires and is higher off the ground and seems to be better balanced with the taller vehicles.
Nice looking unit. The bigger one will certainly be nicer when the weather isn't great for everyone to be outside. I like the idea of the living space between the two bedrooms.
Tom, did you wash the truck and camper before those pictures? Around here they certainly would have needed it because the slightest snow and they go crazy with trying to melt it and you know what that causes.
I can certainly understand but for those who live further south, many do not realize the difference in temperature gives a huge difference in slippery. When I lived further north and people would come from further south for a visit they had a difficult time understanding how we could drive the speed we did and didn't lose control and could also stop in a decent distance. Of course when the temperature rose to around or above the thawing point things definitely change. But then I watch folks all year really depend much on their brakes and also always in a hurry so they come to a corner fast then slam on the brakes. It works but also succeeds in building a habit. Same thing for taking off from a stop. It is amazing to me how many really don't realize not only how that will ruin gas mileage but also when there is snow, those tires create heat especially when spinning. Why, some wonder, do they always spread so much salt at corners...
I know your aware that the colder than zero will freezer burn the ice aiding in traction. As it approaches -50* it burns the ice quickly.
When the snow gets squeaky it’s usually pretty good to drive on. When the noise stops it turns bad. Spent tons of time on dirt roads in winter round here.
I just north of Allentown and ran the roads around Hazleton to Staudsburg and around. The roads are totally different.
It is a very nice camper but for us and where we go, it won't work. We have always had TC's (this one in my 3rd. TC aren't for everyone but for us, they are ideal, especially concerning the off road aspect. Last time we took a trip with the TC, finding a place to 'boondock' was never an issue either. Any parking lot or pull off works.
