well, we are getting closer... Holiday Rambler Savoy, Sunny Brook Bristol Bay and a Heartland Big Country.... all of them around 32 to 34 feet and 10,400# or less... have had a Sunny Brook before (2003) and never had one problem but from what I have read about the other 2 they are also well built. Heck, Frank gave the Holiday Rambler thumbs up as well.

Suggest you go to www.rvknowhow.com and read the Kieva's suggestions on how to decide on an RV. Also, which brand will be the most convenient to get serviced after the sale?

I would move on from the Sunnybrook. IMHO they use to build the best and cover them with a great warranty. From what I have read and personally experienced with my previous SB I think the Heartland is the best unit in the group.

Good luck.

Holiday Rambler is out of business so I'd avoid that one when your other two picks are supposed to be top picks.

Our 2007 SB Titan has been great. Warranties may have changed; however, ours came with a 2 year.

We still love our Big-Horn (A step above the Big Country) after 2 years. No major problems, come to think of it....no little nagging ones either. My only two wishes not fufilled on this unit would be stainless steel sink and some See-level gauges for the tanks.
As Deck B said earlier....after the sale service is big. Our dealer is 30 miles down the road and has done us well.
