We've had ours almost a year now, and recently completed a 3K mile trip to the Bears Ears area. We Love the floor plan as it werx wonderfully for us and the 3 Border Collies. We've had our share of issues, but overall, we're quite pleased with it and look forward to many more miles and smiles!! Interestingly enough, the large slide has been fine , but our issues have been with the smaller one. I'm bringin it back to the Factory end of Nov to have the issues corrected.
I do have to say that THOR has been attentive to us and our complaints to date. This will be our 2nd trip to Wakarusa, and oddly, I really do think they'll get us happy!!

We have looked at the 35.2, like the floor plan and upgrades from our current ACE.

Do either of you pull a toad? Am curious about power to weight. Any idea what your loaded coach weighs and how much weight is left for the toad.

We too moved up from an ACE 29.2 due to floorplan, etc. We don't tow. We rent when needed. We did a couple of passes in the Rockies and all went well. Lookin' forward to more miles and smiles!! We go back to the factory in Nov...ha

I have a Miramar 2016 33.5. I tow a Ford Explorer, that weighs in about 4500 pounds.

I’ve weighed the rig and the toad a number of times to make sure I’m within the weight limits. Vehicle Weight has not been a problem - my wife and I are careful about taking what we need, not all the crap we think we need.

As for power, I had the Banks powerpack installed, love it! It wasn’t cheap, but it really does help. As you know this is a gas engine so when you get up above 8000 feet going over some of the mountains out west, you’re going to slow down. There’s nothing you can do about the effects of high altitude on a gas engine. You lose power with thinner air. We just deal with it because the gas engine suits our needs just fine.
