I don't know that one. Talk to a tax professional. I don't believe first or second home comes into play. I think it's all about whether you itemize or not.

Another big difference over pop-ups: Don't forget, if you itemize on your federal tax return and have financed the X23B, the loan interest is tax deductible. The fact that it's a travel trailer...

I should add that the table has one corner cut off, so using it "sideways" still leaves room to maneuver around the galley. In fact, the only time we turn the table into it's "normal" position is if...

Turning the Tables

I own an X23b. The only time we have to climb over the table is if we have somebody sleeping on the sofa with it pulled out. Otherwise, we just turn the table sideways leaving easy access to the...
