Smile hello I am Kevin & Celesta Martin

Hello
My name is Kevin and my wife is Celesta Martin. We are "empty nesters" with a grown son. We are researching/looking at campers at this time. We had looked at a Casita at one time but my husband is 6'4" so that won't work. We live in Texas.
We recently bought a Dodge Ram 1500 V8 with a towing capacity of 8000 lbs.
Just taking our time looking around and getting to know people.

Take a look at the Escape 21 or 5.0TA, or the Bigfoot. I believe they all have the headroom needed for taller individuals.

If you can find a Parkliner, it's the only one of my FG trailers my 6'5" grandson could stand upright in.

FGRV for tall people

I agree that there are few fibreglass RVs out there for we tall people but I’m happy with my Boler in which I can comfortably walk around ( I slant my head a bit but I do that naturally due to being 6’6”. I also like that I can comfortably stretch out on the bed at night since the Boler is 6’6” wide.

Welcome! Too lazy to look it up, but I wonder what the length of the bed is in a 21’ Escape? I believe it’s called an XL full. The bed in the original 21’ runs front to rear instead of side to side. The interior height is higher but I don’t know by how much. Worth a look and good luck!

Hi Welcome. You could also check out Bigfoot as I am pretty sure the interior head room is 6'4" That is on all of their trailer models. They come in a 25,21 and 17.5 lengths. Plus you also with the great height you also get a beautiful trailer. Good luck shopping.https://www.bigfootrv.com/docs/featu...ifications.pdf

Hello Kevin, my name is Gary Grab in St Augustine, FL. We have decided to sell our 2016 Parkliner 15'. I have a serious health problem and we can no longer use the trailer. It has 6' 7" of head room and is in great condition. We're asking $19,900. If you would like to see pictures and get more information, please let me know.
