Just came across this thread.
We purchased a TM 2417 in January, at an RV show. We were (okay I was, not the wife) looking to replace our canvas popup, and I wanted something that 1) had hard sides and 2) could go where our popup went - high up on Forest Service roads in the mountains of Colorado.
I had no idea what was available, but had not seen anything that fit the bill. But, at the show, we saw a TM. Loved the concept! Could not find anything else that came close.
Pricey? Yes, until I looked at canvas popups that had the amenities the TM has. Those canvas pups were $18 - $19k! The 2417 "show price" was not much more, and I got my hard sides, much better insulation (actually, canvas pups have no insulation!), and my wife got the indoor plumbing.
To me, the TM is a wonderful unit. They may cost a little more than a full TT, but to me, the ease of towing, and all the other reasons mentioned above, make it worth the investment. We plan to use it for at least 20 years, so it is a heck of a unit for us.
