The TM
Is a 2008 model 3124KS retrofitted in 2013 at the TM factory in Jacksboro, TN to the (then current) 2013 exterior graphics package, plus we added the optional aluminum alloy wheels (see the pix). A complete factory inspection and "tune-up" were also performed at that time.
We had the TM factory install a (then current) 120V power receptacle on the rear bumper replacing the attached "pull out" power cord. This mod allows use of a detachable power cable. Very handy. All roof openings were completely resealed in 2019. I also have the original white wheels and tires which were removed from the camper for the upgrade wheels .
Other than these factory upgrades, this TM is completely stock with virtually every available factory option. It has the hanging kitchen cabinets, cooktop with gas oven, microwave drawer, hanging shelf for the king bed "bedroom" wall, and the electric tongue jack with back-up manual crank. I have installed an amplifier for the rooftop TV antenna and reworked the antenna distribution system (all neatly hidden on the floor beneath the bottom drawer of the TV cabinet) with connectors and switching to where you can use the exterior F connector to connect cable or satellite to the system. I've also had a water heater bypass system installed to make winterizing very simple. This camper does not have a swing-away tongue.
The "Extras"
I am forced to sell this TM because of an accident in 2021 that left me a paraplegic, so unfortunately we can no longer use it. I kept it until now hoping I might recover enough mobility to camp again, but no such luck.
So, I'm making this a complete package offer and including all of the really useful TM related equipment I've accumulated over the years, including:
The "Fine Print"
My accident was in May 2021, so the TM has been basically unused since then. Our pastor borrowed the camper for a week in June of 2024 for use at a church camp about 120 miles each way from our house. He said it traveled flawlessly. No flat spots on the tires, electric brakes worked, and it "pulled like a dream." (It's a TM, what did he expect??)
My wife winterizes it every year and runs fresh water through the system, including the water heater, when the weather warms. We check all the systems and appliances at least twice a year. We keep the windows cracked for ventilation and frequently clean the camper inside.
The TM has been parked under an aluminum RVport for the 11 years we have had it. We store it with the shells open for easy access, so with my injury it has been impossible for us to do a wash job on the roof. The baby will need a good bath. I have sold my tow vehicle so we can't take it to a car wash.
Overall, it is in very good condition. There are a couple of cosmetic blemishes on the exterior that have been camouflaged; one of the rear nylon bed slides is cracked, but still functional, I have the repair material just can't do the repair; and the large side window behind the sink had a very slow drippy that got the wallboard beneath it wet and caused it to swell a tiny bit. It really is not noticeable unless you're looking for it. The trim piece at that location is missing. The Velcro used to secure the weather seal flaps in the front shell needs replacing. It has lost its sticky back. I have the Velcro and will include it, again, I just can't make the repair.
I have a complete Dish TV receiver and self-locating antenna system that I would sell for an additional $175. It would require a Dish subscription to work.
I have no idea why the attached images are upside down, but click it and it will look straight. I also have several more pictures I can email you, or if there is something particular you would like to see, a pic of, just ask.
Thanks for your consideration. Bring your tow vehicle, with a brake controller and go camping!

So, I'm making this a complete package offer and including all of the really useful TM related equipment I've accumulated over the years, including:
- Husky weight distribution hitch with tow vehicle shank and sway control kit (not really needed with a TM, of course)
- Carrying case for the weight distribution bars and other hitch accessories
- Full set of leveling blocks, tire ramps for leveling, chock blocks, etc.
- Bottle jack to change the TM tire if you have a road flat
- Potable water hoses and all plumbing hook-up accessories: pressure regulator and a number of various water connectors
- Very heavy duty sewer hookup hose and many accessories for sewage hook-up including an "accordion style" hose support ramp
- MANY spare parts including bed slide nylon guides, extra bag seal material for the weatherproof seal where the shells meet, spare shower curtain, numerous small parts for the TM such as various latches, lock-down hooks, pocket covers, the flip-up lock bars for the shells, etc. I basically went nuts when we were at the factory and loaded up on every spare part I thought I'd ever need.
- I'm sure I've missed several things
