jerry2rez,
We've had our 3295RK since 2002. We have really enjoyed it so far. WE do not fulltime but rather do some longtime camping. The wife loves the extra counter space. In addition to massive amounts of cabinet storage space. We both love the massive space that opens up between the living room slide and the kitchen slide. Gives a nice large open space. I love the way the rig tows. Unless you KNOW it is back there you sometimes forget it is there. Very nice.

The pin weight of this model is a bit on the heavy side so you need a tow vehicle that can support this extra weight. If you don't then your TV will sag in the rear causing the front to point up. This condition must be corrected as it is dangerous. Along with the weight issue is the stopping ability of the TV. If the CGWR is over by too much then you get what I call "tail wagging the dog" syndrome. This means that when you try to stop and need to stop NOW the trailer will sort of cause the TV to scoot around in ways NOT under your direct control. So get smaller trailer or larger TV. Or you can sort of beef up an under rated rig to perform better but it is only a stop gap process. We went from a Ford 250 PSD SD Long bed rig to a Ford 450 PSD SD long bed. No problems since we've switched TVs.

We love the rig and would get another one. It would probably be the same model or one similar to our current floor plan. The rig is large and does keep us out of some of previous favorite spots! Now we find a place close and go visit them.

Enjoy the rig it is great one.
