Just picked up our Flagstaff Classic Super Lite 831RESS!

Brought it home on Tuesday. So far so good. I've been going over everything to make sure everything works and all systems are a go I'm HAPPY to report. I still have to check out the portable solar panels and the rear back up camera that were included in the deal. I'd like to give a shout out to Mantelli rv sales in Lockport, NY. They did a great job on the walk through and they also organized all the manuals that came the camper in a three-ring binder with tabs dividing all the different categories. Awesome idea! If you live in the Western NY area and your look for a Trailer /RV , I would highly recommended them!

I bought my 2015 831RESS at the end of 2014 and picked it up in March of 2015. We have camped in it approximately 8 times since then and have had no issues or problems. I opted for the recliners instead of the cinema seating and the dinette instead of the table and chairs. Usually have the ex and one daughter and her family which consists of husband and 3 little boys, all under 5 years of age. I installed the Furion rear observation camera system and a few other items to make camping more interesting and comfortable. I love the camper and would highly recommend it to anyone looking. I am, however, thinking of upgrading to a RAM 2500 from my current RAM 1500 as a tow vehicle to make things easier in the mountains...

Congrats, great unit. Have a 2012 831rkbs and just love it. Very few problems with it. Started out with a 3/4 ton tv and it tows just fine. Enjoy it, one of the better tts. Loved the floor plan which we still love after five years of ownership.

I am also towing with a GMC 3/4 ton. I was wondering jobecka 1 ,what type of WDH hitch are you using? I have to buy a new one because my old one is not heavy enough.
