Hey, Poppy! Small world! I understand they had the high dresser the first year and changed to the low dresser from customer input. The 337RLS is the one that caught our eye also. The specs indicate these are way better insulated compared to our current rigs. We are probably still a couple of years out, but thinking the next rig will be our last and want something to spend months at a time in. I also looked at the Solitude 320x as that is within F350 SRW weight, but still like the Reflection better. The 337 shows R-11 in the walls vs R-9 for the other Reflection models.
We don't have that truck yet either and that will come first.
The knee is healing but still tender so I requested working at the beginner mountain for the coming weekend instead of the advanced mountain I was scheduled for.
Keep me in the loop on your findings, please.2015 Ford F350 SRW CrewCab SB 6.7 PSD, Andersen Ultimate fifth wheel hitch

Will do. Whatever we do it will definitely be our last. I'm 65 in a couple months and our income is our income, if you know what I mean. Not much wiggle room. I thought this trailer would be our last but it just doesn't quite have the amenities I would like for more than a week or 2 travel and forget about the insulation. Even though I pulled the bottom off and stripped out the cheezy stuff they called insulation and installed rigid insulation, it is just a plain old cold trailer in fall and winter. Plus, ours is only a 30 amp trailer. You couldn't get our trailer with 50 amp until 2012. We really, really want a front A/C. I will loose a fair amount of money if I make the "upgrade" but it just might be worth it.
I guess I'm still up in the air about the quality of this trailer and ours. Not a lot of them out there and not much information really available. I've read most everything here and on GD's website. I wish they had a better section on their website describing their construction. Who makes the frame (Lippert I assume), what style is it, how are the walls constructed (pinch or vacuum), etc? Their construction descriptions are fairly vague. I do think the price is good IF the quality is that much better than the Keystone products. I also considered a Montana HC but the floor plan I like is over 39 feet and I didn't really want to go up to 36.1. I looked at their other floor plans and didn't see one in a shorter length that I really liked. Oh, I hate how small our current shower is so the 337 shower looks huge.
Anyway, back to yard work. I'll let you know what I decide.Paul "Poppy" and Deb Cervone
