Hey nice! We have 5 kids and we were trying to get the smallest camper possible so the 26 TBUD won out. Just camped for the first time last weekend and it was perfectly sized for our fam. Headed out again next weekend. How 'bout you guys?

Purchased end of June from a dealer in OH. We have 2 8th graders, 21 year old with a 6 month old. So 6 of us.
Been out 7 times so far.
Not going again till mid September.

Let me ask you a question so you have a lot of movement when the kids are moving in the bunks? Stabilizer jacks are down but rocks the whole camper.

Yep. Had to tell the kids to lay still that first night! I've read that without adding more stabilizers the suspension is always going to have enough give to allow movement. And hey! You must be the one that bought that TBUD I had my eye on at Avalon RV back in June haha!

No I purchased from Jeff Couch’s.
I tried adding a jack in front of the axels on the last trip but didn't seem to make much a differance.

Couch's definitely had the best deal by far when I was price checking, but they weren't able to get one shipped to me by the time I wanted. So I bought local. This is my first RV, I wonder if stab or scissor jacks do a better job than ours? Or maybe it's just the size of the TBUD.
