The 18D is all about bed space. There is no couch, and no counter space (at all). But the tradeoff is that it is small to tow yet still has 3 queen beds. If you are looking for maximum sleeping...

I keep a 5 gallon bucket on hand. After I dump the black tank, I leave the valve open, fill the bucket and dump it all down the toilet. The pressure of all that water coming through at once breaks...

I think the emptier the campground is, the more careful you have to be, actually. Only time we had a problem was last year on the very first weekend in an almost empty state park. A couple kids...

I've seen awnings that were tied down hold firm in some very high winds. It probably depends on how well the anchors are put down and what straps you use. I got just a 2 pack of general use ratchet...

My dad keeps a 2x4 handy to put in the track of the power awning on his 23b to let one side slide down a little lower than the other, letting the water run off that side. It's not truly angled, but...

X23F. I need the 3 bunks, but the rockwood version of the 23F was too heavy. Looks like the Jayco is about halfway in between that and the X18 I bought for weight, but with a lot more space
