Our New Trailer

We're counting down to the delivery of our new travel trailer!  We expect it mid-December.  We're getting a Fleetwood Wilderness 32dbhs.  It sleeps 10!  Don't worry, we still only need sleeping for 6, but we intend to hang on to this trailer for some time and this way the girls can bring friends, and maybe my sister will even bring the new baby (counting down to June 2007).  There are quad bunks in the back, a full bathroom, a full kitchen and a separate master bedroom (see the floor plan picture below; click to enlarge it!).  There is a slide, and the sofa contains a queen size pull out sofa-bed.  The floor plan is what sold us, but the Wilderness is great on other levels as well.  The chassis is enclosed, which makes cold weather camping easier.  The tank sizes are huge, which makes dry camping easier.  And... it has a stove!! I can't wait for hot cornbread and camp chili!  The trailer is an ostentatious 32 feet long (nearly 34 with the hitch), but its still well below our our suburban's (454) towing capacity.  We're having a sway control mechanism added for easier towing.  I can't wait until its here and we can take it on our first test run before our Road Trip!
