We have a 258RKS, it's just over a year old. No problems, except for minor issues. I have re-screwed several cabinets that were not screwed properly initially. We love ours!

We store our camper off-site at a storage facility as our homeowner's association will not allow us to store on our property. However, I was planning to swing by there tomorrow evening, anyways, so i can easily take some measurements and some pix, too. I'll reply with the info tomorrow evening.

Just bought one, too

Hi there, just bought one of these 259 bad-boys and picking up on Sat, figured I'd join the forum here, and say hi.

Love the layout, and looking forward to the extra room, we're moving up from a pop-up, so this thing will be quite the step up in convenience. With the boys growing, we needed the bunks, and I'm just sick of the constant up-down-up-down, required with the pop up.

Anybody out there know of a non-destructive way to mount some solar panels on the roof? We do a lot of dry camping, and would be nice to have some spare juice.

Can't wait to tow it home, and then to the beach the following weekend.

That would be great if your going there anyway... but please don't go out of your way.

We haven't heard back from the dealership yet! Wish there were more options for dealerships out here...

Glad to hear people are happy with their units!
