I am shopping for a new pickup toad right now. The one I like are as scarce as hens teeth as it had one of the "voted best of the year" awards and it's new back to the market this year. There are no discounts on that truck at all....to popular and none in stock.

That's my thought if the 2016s have significant upgrades, or something we can't live without i will go after one. If not hopefully their arrival gives some great deals on the 2015.

The dealer was Lazydays, they had it is stock and charged $1279 installed. Definiteley overpriced. You certainly could find it cheaper if you shop, but I paid extra for convenience and immediate gratification.

Thanks that is a tad on the high side. But, for us it's a necessity.

Claybox - We are on site 201 at Willow Lakes and have an Entegra Aspire DEQ and am familiar with all the models. Glad to discuss the coach with you.

We had ours done at the same time March had his. The aftermarket one they used isn't as "user-friendly" as the one from Entegra. Oddly - I had an extra one installed on my Tiffin and it was the same as the original one on the Anthem - go figure.
Just us but the lost height hasn't been an issue at all. We've had both and prefer the carpet. Seems to slide a little less, but like most of this stuff, it's personal preference.

Well the numbers did not crunch well. So maybe this time next year. I've learned unless you have a much older coach to trade or sell your existing coach via private sale the dealers just aren't going to give you squat for your trade. When our s/b is built and were in I'll put our coach on the market. This Providence is much too nice and so well equipped to give away at wholesale. Oh well.....maybe a Cornerstone?

Sorry it didn't work out Clay. I totally understand your feelings with the dealer's low trade in. I put in too many mid-night hours to give a 1/3 of my equity to a dealer and refuse to do it when the resale market is so good right now.

RVTrader is where I had the best results. Ten to one the amount of calls of the other ads and better qualified calls as well. The others were kind of a waste of money for me.

Chuck, thanks for your input. Your were right on regarding the method of sales regarding my trade. Dealers just don't want trades. I can tell its a hassle for them on a newer coach on trade in. However they know they will make a bundle on a clean used coach so they want to steal it. Definitely liked Robin and his approach, seems like a nice guy, very knowledgable and really did try to put a deal together but he's got bosses and so do I, called DW. She writes the check and this one didn't fit her budget. Really liked the coach and I'll take your advice and sell privately. Thanks all for the input.

I'll give you a thought about storage bays. We looked at Newmar and Winny's and Itasca. I thought the Spartan Chassis and Entegra bays were the most spacious so it was another reason why we bought an Anthem. When I ordered the Anthem It comes with one sliding tray. I ordered a second tray for the identical bay behind it. I sort of messed up. My previous RV, a Aspire, had one slider. I think WITHOUT the slider you have a huge cargo area for big stuff like grills, mini golf carts, bikes...etc. take a look at one of those cargo bays with and without a tray. If I was doing it again I'd stick with one cargo tray!

I was thinking like Hogdriver, and didn't want to lose the height by putting in a second slide. Emerson changed my mind and I am glad that he did. With the generous height of the Entegra basement, there is still enough height even with the trays. In addition on my 44SL there is still a full height bay behind the two slide trays.

Yes, I get your point about the height. However my back doesn't! Just can't see ducking under the slides when out and trying to hook something in the middle and drag it out. It's hard enough with the sliding trays. I've got the spartan chassis now so, I'm familiar with the room Spartan offers. But trays are a must have for both DW and I. I really like the remote auto lok that saves time and easy on the back!

Sounds like what you really want is electric slideout trays.
