Hi all,

Finally figured out what I want and ordered a 7 X 14 v-nose tandem today, should be ready 6/26/12. Really looking forward to the build and will post progress as it goes.

Congrats. That's a nice size. Sometimes I wish I would have added the 2 foot in my search. It'll be nicer and roomier when you finish and spend time in it.

flboy,

Yes, the brakes come standard with the tandem. Got to have them on something that size.

Pete,

Bought the 7 X 14 v-nose thru Trailershowroom, three windows, rv door w/window and screen, two roof vents, wall and ceiling insulation and 10 foot awning. I will pick it up in Douglas Ga in about 2 1/2 weeks. Then I will build queen bed, bathroom, kitchen area, small dinette and a 2 foot wide storage area accessed thru the back doors. Can hardly wait!!!!!!!!!!

Love to see the build pictures,we want something similar.Had to buy Honda generators during the Christmas floods in Mapleton Oregon,lack of electricity will do that to you. Moved our buying schedule back.
