Our new Roo19

Took delivery on 6/17 from Terrytown in GR, MI.

Great transaction.

Thanks to everyone here, we were well educated and are ready to roll.

Fully loaded (with what we need) the Toyota Highlander does a good job, believe it or not! I intentionally sought out steep inclines, and the Toyota delivered. Granted W. Mich is not exactly Appalachia!

Thanks for all the pre purchase tips!

Wow great pic! I bet you are excited! I really like those Roo 19 campers, I almost got one last year, They pack a big punch in a cozy rig! And they look sharp too! Enjoy the season! I am ready to go back out!

Looks awesome! We bought our 233S from Terrytown this March. Was Eric Odom your salesman? We were very happy with him and the dealer overall.

Good luck and enjoy!

Nope. We worked with Ryan Madden.

liked the DK, but would have had to travel naked or lose weight in order for the Highlander to handle the added weight!

Taking our 19 out using our Highlander for the first time this coming weekend. Chose the 19 for the same reasons. We've been towing the 19 thus far with the truck, next 2 trips the Highlander gets to go to work.
Good stuff

WOW LOOKS FUN! I just came back from 2 days in Meadvile Pa KOA, NICE campground! Where are you guys getting those ground carpets? I always had a site with a brick patio so I didn't ever buy one, now i need one i guess, going many different places soon. Enjoy and thanks for the pics!

Most dealers sell the outdoor carpets but we got ours at WalMart. Quite a bit cheaper.

Last weekend was the first tow with our highlander, I too was pleasantly surprised at how well it handled the load. I have the equalizer wdh set to the highest it'll go, my only wish was it'd go maybe another inch higher to push more weight forward, but as it stands I'd pull this setup anywhere.

Wal-mart. About 1/2 the cost of the dealers. We paid around $40 for ours.

I've never used an in/out carpet, but I can say the rv mat we got from Amazon is easy to sweep, and clean, dries fast too. Folds up small, and is light weight.
