Yes, this park is awesome and only 45min from downtown Montreal

Thanks but I'm looking for something when I have the 5th wheel using the bed ;-)

Good idea btw

Those Outbacks are cool-- I love the hard sided sliding bedrooms.

Getting ready to pull the trigger on a 20-22 ft camp trailer. Looked at tons of different makes and models. This will be my first one (first camp trailer, not first time towing) and I want to do it right Is there ANYTHING all of you wish you had opted for? Things that you wish you had or you now miss having from a previous trailer that I should make sure to get?

Here is a short list of features the wife and I have grown to like from what we've seen:
-Walk around queen size bed (as opposed to a sideways mounted bed where someone is against a wall)
-pass through front storage (usually located under the bed in front of the trailer)
-not only a dinette but also a couch that folds into a bed. (awesome for extra sleeping options as well as seating when its pouring and everyone wants to pile into your trailer).
-bathroom located at the rear of the trailer (less cramped than those in the middle).
-We LOVE the popout options. A single pop out can make a 20 ft trailer feel like a 27 ft trailer space wise.

SO what do you all think? Anything we need to be sure to opt for or look into?

Default Looks great

Trucks and campers look great I loved it.I have a 1998 F150 with the 5.4 pulling a 2008 22ft. Camper. It pulls it ok don't really care for 9 miles a gallon is there anything i can do to help it pull better and maybe get better fuel economy.
Thanks.
