Re: Size Equivalent
Mike,
Back in 1990 and 1991, Trailmanor had the 20, 22, 23, 25, 26,27, and 28 models. In late 1993 and with the 1994 models, Trailmanor switched to the new model numbers to tell customers what size trailer they would have to buy to equal the trailmanor that they were looking at. The top number is what the Trailmanor is equal to in other standard trailers, and the bottom number is the size of the Trailmanor closed.
To arrive at the new model numbers, Trailmanor added 4 to the old model number and subtracted 3 to get the second part.
An example of this is:
The old 23 Model was 20 ft. closed and 23ft. 11inches open. So the new model became 2720. Add 4 and subtract 3. This new representation was a truer picture for potential buyers of the size of the trailer they would have to buy to equal a Trailmanor. With the Trailmanor you have the back bed extending out, and also the the front bed extending out over the tongue of the trailer or a front slide out couch. Conventional trailers don't have this, so you would have to buy that much of a larger unit to equal the Trailmanor.
Some of the old model numbers were produced in years to come, but others were discontinued.
20M 2426 not made
22M 2619
23M 2720
25M 2922 not made
26M 3023
27M 3124
28M 3225
29M 3326
For a short time, Trailmanor made the 2518 model also, but not for long.
I hope this clarifies the model numbers that Trailmanor is using today and since the 1994 models.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
