We have a 23B and quite honestly we've spent more money on other cutesy gizmos that were not nearly as awesome as Pop up Gizmos. I love them and they're worth every cent!

Congrats and enjoy! Also a bit jealous. Not wishing 12 years away, but look forward to trading in the 23B for either a 5th wheel or motorhome when we retire and seeing all of our couynty's beauty!

We tow a 2008 23B with a 2007 Honda Ridgeline V6, with a tow cap of 5K. We pack pretty darn light, and it's not horrible, but under powered. The Ridgeline has a wide stance, so it's not bad as far as...

So I'm a 250 lb. 6' guy. I'm not a germophobe, but I prefer my own shower to a public one. Our locker shower is certainly usable, but am thinking of using the outside one with a shower enclosure for...
