After returning from a trip almost 3 weeks long a few days ago and an almost 6 week trip last fall, we have a few items on our WISH LIST for TrailManor to provide on future models. This is so when we are ready for our next, new TM some years down the road, these features will be available either as a standard feature or as an option:
1. King Size Bed in a garageable model (perhaps a 2821KS, or even better a 2720KS, although the new fold-away hitch will help). We don't need the extra cabinets that are in the 3124KS. We just would like to sleep the other way so we aren't disturbing one another to get up in the middle of the night.
2. Thermopane windows to reduce condensation when cold and to reduce heat gain when hot out.
3. An improvement in the toilet design to truly seal the "goodies" in the toilet area. Even a porta-potti does that!
4. Some type of "permanent" overhead shower solution. Many people have gotten very creative on this solution and we have made Hal's version.
Forgot these earlier:
5. Better insulated bed seals (maybe velcroed insulated flaps would work over the existing seals).
6. Insulated wheel wells. Ours are just sheet metal.
7. An additional circuit for cold weather use. Currently, all AC outlets are on one circuit breaker. There is lots more power available wth the 30 amps, but most is reserved for the air conditioner. A separate set of outlets could be clearly marked with covers (maybe) to use only when the air conditioner was not being used. This would allow for a second heater when doing cold weather camping without stringing a cord from the campground post and threading it under the velcro flaps.
These are our main wish items. Please add yours to this thread to give TM designers some food for thought. We currently have a 2001 2720SL and like the front sofa design.
P.S. If these things have been already been incorporated in the newer models, never mind!
