Talking Huge Upgrade!

Hello all!! I've been loitering and asking question on here until our new fifth wheel came in. Thanks to all who contributed their opinions, there were no surprises. Couldn't be happier with our upgrade! Went from a 22' hybrid to a 38' 34.5BHTS (picked it up Monday). I can still touch the ceiling but at least it isn't with my eyebrows (I guess that's really only funny if I tell you that I myself am 80" tall and that the ceiling height in the hybrid is less than that). Anyhoo... What a difference! This thing is a monster, but we had a list and everything that was on it now has a check mark! This being our 3rd trailer we knew what we wanted and this thing fits the bill. Now if it will only last for 20 years! Time will tell... This is gonna be a blast!
