Hi everyone,
A friend recommended I join your group and after reading many of the forums I think I came to the right place!
My husband and I are searching for a new Class C, 27 or 29'. I really don't know where to start. I like the Winnebago 29' BT Cruiser the best so far, also the Gulfstream Ultra. Any comments on either of these? Any particular features I should be looking for? I know I want slide outs and a separate bedroom. Any comments on that? It is just the two of us and three shelties that we compete with at agility trials. I owned a 24' travel trailer many years ago and loved it but don't know much about the motorhome side of it. So I am here to learn all I can before we purchase! Thanks!

Welcome Sheltiemom, I am sure you will find all the answers you need here. We traveled with 2 boxers, so I know how it is with dogs camping.

Glad to have you here. Lots of dog owners here and a fair number of Shelties.

We had a 1999 Minnie Winnie DL and it was a great class C.

Welcome sheltiemom to irv2.
Had alot of fun with a class C until family grew out of it. There are some good floor plans to choose from now adays and with slides. Look them all over and make your choice with the options you have stated and stick with them.
Compare the pricing between them and make your choice. Don't rush yourself take your time and ask many questions of salesman and don't take a simplistic answer.
Enjoy the forums and post any other questions you may have.
