A new first for me (at least since I've had a Trailmanor), went on a 5 day camping trip and did not see another Trailmanor! I usually see several, at least on the highways.

Father's Day TM sighting today, took a drive down to Seacliff State Beach, CA, in search of sun (found none, just fog) but we saw a larger TM, newer, didn't see anybody around and no tow vehicle in the designated parking space. They were in site #2.

Site #1 is a phantom site...it's next to the campground host, usually nobody can camp there, unless, apparently, you're an employee (or ex employee?) of the State Parks Dept. I asked one of the occupants there and that's what they told me. At $65 a night, that's about $23K per year income loss.

We haven't seen a TM around here in quite a while.

Camped for 2 days across the road from a family with 4 kids in a 2720 from Los Angeles area - DW talked to the folks before they headed to the SF Bay Area.

El Chorro Regional Park located on Highway 1 between San Luis Obispo and Morro Bay in CA.

Out checking some other CG's in the UP and drove through Little Lk Brevort N; a SF CG and there was a 2720 setup in the ideal spot. Perfect lake view and near the boat launch.They weren't home at the time so didn't get a chance to say hi

We spent a week in the Gunnison/Crested Butte area of Colorado. Last week we saw one TM on the side of the road between Buena Vista and Fairplay. One was behind us going up Monarch pass, but fell back. Today, we saw a 2720 at Lost Lake campground with a red Toyota Tacoma(I think?) in the exact spot we camped in years ago with our Coleman Santa Fe. The irony here, we wanted to camp at Lost Lake but I called the Paonia ranger station a few weeks ago and they said they had no water there. It's at least 30 minutes to the nearest water, so we opted to stay in an RV park in Gunnison. Nice enough if you like being in a sardine can! Man these spaces are close together. So, next time it's Lost lake for sure, even if we do have to go far distances for water.

On July 14, hubbie and I spotted four TM's within 1/2 hour, coming down from Rabbit Ears Pass and on the way to Silverthorne on rt. 9. We quickly figured out that it must have been the tail end of a rally, and confirmed that the Mile High Trailblazers had just met in Steamboat Springs. (As newbies, we haven't yet joined, as we wanted to get our feet wet first). One TM that had been at the rally camped at Pearl Lake State Park, but we didn't get to meet the owners. We also saw a TM at Hahn's Peak Lake NF campground --owners not there, but a relative said that they had not been at the rally.

Would like to give details on TV's etc, but by the time I've spotted the trailer and confirmed that it is a TM, the vehicles are gone--all were trucks, SUV's, or a minivan!

Happy camping, all!

Met three more on the way home today. One coming into Gunnison, one on Trout Creek Pass and one in Metro Denver on I-70. Like Jampcourt, by the time you realize it's a Trailmanor, they are already past. That makes a total of 6 we saw this last week.

Spotted an early 2000 (2000-2003 ??) 2619 at Big Meadows Campground on the Skyline Drive this morning during my bike ride.
