Default 2018 TM's on Englewood lot

We spent about an hour going over both units to look at finish and trim as well as workmanship. Generally these are both the same as our units. The 3124 is out of Nebraska and was pre sold to some individual who allowed TM to use it at a Colorado Springs show. It is not in mint condition. The other one is new out of the SD factory.

If one looks back at a previous thread where several of us were first commenting on these two units through pictures on the dealer's website, one will see that there were comments about trim and cabinet differences; sink heights, bathroom sink configs, etc. These are all true. The two trailers are finished differently. The 3124 out of Nebraska has some of the cabinet work we are used to now, but it also has a different kitchen and bathroom sink config than our '07 3124. Also, the cabinet work is quite different between Nebraska and SD. Still light weight staple construction, but different end product.

Both trailers have the electrical hook up where the male end is on the back driver side to be mated to a fully separate 30 amp cord. Wiring behind the fridge is still a rat's nest, plus there is a box under the trailer under the fridge that is just a bunch of twist nut connections. I told the dealer that dog would not hunt; it needs a cover at a minimum.

The fundamentals of these trailers are unchanged. Same torsion arm configs, some set up steps, etc. Given time I expect the SD factory will hit its stride. Right now I would find a 2014 out of Tennessee if I were looking.

I have too many pictures to post, so I will put up four from inside the 3124 and one from outside showing the dual access doors under the bed.

Feel free to contact me if you have specific questions.
