Well, I can chime in here, I guess. I paid $8000 for my 1996 2518 in Summer of 2005. We have done a few of the repair/modifications and should do some more. I really like the comfort of it and to tell you the truth, I have looked at a few Rvs and trailers to see if they would be a possibility in the future (when I get tired of setting up and tearing down), and I have yet to find a floorplan that suits my needs that isn't huge and hence out of my price and towing range. Until they develop an hybrid or better yet an electric TV that can handle a large trailer, that I can afford to purchase along with purchasing said trailer, I guess I'll stay with my Astro and my TM. By the way, I was set up all week and happy to discover that after 4 days of rain, neary a leak was found. Pretty good for an 11 year old TM.
