I still have it David. I haven't decided what I am going to do, keep or sell. I suppose I really should decide soon. Because if I decide to sell, someone in the PNW would probably like to use it this camping season.

Thanks for all the kind words folks. You're all the bomb!

I know around here, trailers sell faster and for better money in the spring, as the number of buyers is way higher, all looking forward to a summer of camping. When I made a deal on my 19 it was in the fall, and I held onto my 24' stickie until mid-May, and was pleasantly surprised on the response I got. Lots of people wanting to buy to use starting on the May long weekend. I got lots of offers not too far from my asking price, and sold it for exactly what I wanted.

I agree with Jim. Selling before the May long weekend will likely get you the best price. I am constantly watching Trillium prices, and they are quickly coming down now.

Totally agree about Spring/Fall pricing. However, here in the Pacific NorthWET... August/September/October are our (typically) driest months. But this year... who knows, weather has been wacky.

I REALLY wish Pam. When I decided to buy a new 5.0TA the plan was to camp, at least, 10 months every year. It's now three weeks into August and I don't know if I'll get OUT this month. DANG WORK ANYWAY! I've got plans/site fees already paid for October....

'Dirt and scratches' mean you are in the fray, that you're out there living the life. The non threatening scars of life are the basis of memories.

When we bought our first RV we did 'yard camping', getting to know a new friend, learning it's little attributes. I know you're a well experienced RVer but I bet there are times you sit in your 5 just smiling and feeling good. Wishing you many good road years.

Damn nice trailer. If money wasn't an object, that would be my pick out of the fiberglass trailers, hands down.

The customizing they allow makes it that much better.
