New 2604WS just about ordered...

We agreed on trade and price, just need to get financing in place and wait for it to be built.

Love the 2502 mini lite, but a little more room/comfort is desired, and mama won't hate the bathroom anymore, lol.

Dealer played games with numbers, like always, trying to tell me he's giving me exactly what I paid for my trade. Doesn't have an answer when I tell him the trailer is 3K too high. They must think we're dumb. Got him to take another $500 and throw in a Reese dual cam hitch.

Now the waiting game!!

We love our Mini Lite (1901) as well, but with all 3 dogs along it gets old quick having to put away the toaster so we can make coffee when we have to stay inside on rainy days. Going tomorrow for the walk-through on the Windjammer 3008w. #woot!

I have the 2604 2010 model without the wardrobe slide - still really like its versatility. I love the fact that this trailer has two doors, and a mid good sized bathroom, and offers multiple options for rearranging the rear living area furniture depending on who is traveling. It has held up well and been modified by me extensively to personalize it.

Just had our first camping trip in our 2016 2604. Our trade in was a Shamrock 23SS. Loved it, but this is even better, though we kept hitting our heads in the kitchen area. Have to get used to that. The air doesn't circulate as well either. I think we'll have to use the air conditioning more but it will be easier to heat. Great storage. Everything worked well. Can't wait to camp again. Congratulations on your new camper.

Still not ordered, but the financing is in place... starting to get anxious, even though we are a long way off from delivery of a trailer not even ordered, yet.

I'm taking my time.... thinking maybe I should try to sell the 2502S while I wait for the new trailer to be built. Does anyone have any thoughts on selling my used trailer versus trading it in?

One hard part is, Rockwood is changing wood and decor options so we have to order the new colors sight unseen. We are not fond of the "leather" on the furniture, so I think we are limited to just one decor option. Does anyone know about options on furniture coverings? I could tolerate a "leather" couch, but I really don't want it on the rockers...

Anyway, if anyone has opinions/thoughts on any of my musings, I'd love to hear about them.

Thanks!

I'm sure we would have done well if we had sold our old TT in the spring, but in the fall got no interest at all, so we traded it in at a loss. There was no hassle doing it that way. Our dealer had our old trailer sold within 3 hours of us bringing it in, in the spring. We picked up our 2016 2604 (DH jokes that it hasn't even been made yet)in May & are currently on our second camping trip. We have the Willow with cherry cabinets & wood look floor. I really like it. Didn't think I'd like the pleather but it looks great & with 2 hairy dogs is easy to keep clean.

It's ordered!!!

The negotiating took many turns, and looked grim for a while, but it is done!

Now the waiting.

Thanks!

There isn't a build date assigned yet, and the factory shuts down next week. I don't expect it until September.... maybe I'll be pleasantly surprise. We'll see.
