Still Window Shopping

[George in New Mexico]

Planning to buy in May, 2017. Considered egg fiberglass, but price and wait time for manufacture led us here. We're older, and want to have the trailer without waiting a year or so. The FR 19' Murphy bed model looks great, but wonder about bed length for a six foot man. Also a little leery of a single axle. Is double axle worth the moola? Also, do the mini-lites leak a lot? Have a lot to learn from all you guys. Anyone who has such a trailer is welcome to respond! Looks like this place is full of really good, helpful people. Thanks.

We started with a single axle 17 ft and quickly moved to a double axle 19 foot. I am 6'3 and can only sleep on a queen full. Most smaller trailers have a queen short.

Hope that helps

Thanks for your comments, jgourlie. Your awesome, beautiful rig appears to be way too much RV for my little F-150, even with a V8 and tow package. I'll just have to keep scouring these pages and others online. Something good will happen in the next 15 months. I can't believe the huge number of brands and floor plans. Crazy! BTW, what part of Canada? My mother was born in Grand Prairie, AB, in 1919.
