New 2012 Flagstaff 26RLSS

Just took delivery of our new 26RLSS. on 9/2. Took it out to the Tall Timbers KOA in Brookville,Ohio for the shake down run. We had the best time. The TT was better than expected. We had no issues with it. And the camp ground was splended. We are so glad that we picked the Flagstaff 26RLSS. One thing we did learn is being level is good!!!! In the morning I set up the gas grill outside to make sure it worked and the eggs on the skillet went to one side. Didnt look real good but anything cooked outside always taste good !!!! We are looking for a few more outings before we put her away for the winter. Thanks Flagstaff

We have the same T.T and have used it on appx. 12 to 15 trips. The floor plan works well for us and the TT is overall a good unit. Hope you enjoy yours and ..........Happy camping.

No bounce for us. We use the Equalizer brand hitch. It does sound like a hitch set up problem, might want to have it checked / adjusted. We have had no problems pulling the TT.....however, we have not left the flat lands of Fl / South Ga.

I'm in no way a expert, but if you have any questions that I can help with....I will !

Yea I have the Equalizer hitch 1000/10000. Love the hitch. My Dealer said that it wasnt a hitch set up issue.. I am thinking on putting HD shocks on. but the smooth ride I have without the load will be gone. still looking for a solution !!!!

Dealers rarely get the WD setup correctly. I would check the installation manual and check the dimensions myself.

On a side note, my parents usually use that KOA to dump their MH tanks. Nice place.

long trip

we have the same tt. and it was great on our long trip last summer to alaska, from tennessee to ak, 75 days, 11600 miles. we had just small problems, nothing bad. we did change the floorplan, we move a small table to the rear with two new chairs, took out the table and beach seats, and chairs that came with it, and push the sofa up, and place a lazyboy chair where the sofa was. buy doing this we did not have to move alot of stuff to bring in the side. and save some weight too.

I would love to see some pics of the changes you have made to the floor plan. I cant wait for spring to get mine on the road again. What may I ask were the issues you had with the TT..
