2014 Viking 17FQ

My wife and I are considering this model, which is the same as a Clipper 17FQ. Is there anything we should be aware of with this model? Of all the Vikings and Clippers, we liked the 17FQ the best, since it has a walk-around queen bed.

That is a really nice trailer. Can't really help you with your question though.

Thanks for the reply. Anyone? Someone here has to have some valuable input about this model.

Just joined, so apologies for the tardy reply. We've owned a Clipper 17FQ (our first TT) for about 5 months now and have put a couple thousand miles on it. We continually marvel at the fit and finish, the great use of space and the amenities for the price we paid. We originally looked at a 16FB, but the few extra bucks we spent on the 17FQ was well worth it the very first night we slept in it! Yeah, we gave up the pantry closet and the cute li'l wardrobe near the entry, but we got a HUGE bed and a very nice bathroom with vanity in exchange. One word of caution: be careful sitting up or rolling over in that spacious bed -- those bedside cabinets and nightstands have HARD edges!

BTW -- we tow our Clipper 17FQ with a Tacoma double cab short bed V6 with the factory towing package with no problems.
