A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Well, it's a done deal. The HTT is now sitting at Discount RV's lot and my new Keystone Hideout is home with me. It was a busy day, getting everything set up on the Hideout, transferring stuff from one trailer to the other, and then getting the new one home. It's amazing what a difference 6" in width and putting the couch in the front of the trailer makes. It feels so much more spacious!

Here are a few pictures. Marianne went with me to help with moving stuff, so while I was doing the paperwork she played photographer.



The bed is a fullsize, with a fold-down bunk above. I'll probably use the bunk for storage, and no, I'm NOT keeping that bedspread.


Looking toward the front of the trailer from the bed:


The bathroom sink is outside the bathroom. It has a shower/tub combo, which is behind the door on the left:


It came with an awesome entertainment center. This flat-screen TV is 12-volt:


The radio has a DVD/CD player, auxiliary jack, and a USB port so I can attach my iPod. Really impressive, if you ask me!


The galley. I like the black fridge and the double sink:


The couch, which folds down into a nice-sized bed. I like the low cupboard, which I'll use for an end table:


An electric awning. Now maybe I'll use it more often!


All set up and ready to head home. It's about a foot higher than the HTT was -- didn't realize it until I got it back to the lot and stood there looking at it. Whew!


My first trip is in 2 weeks, and then I'm going to look for excuses to be sick at school and find anywhere I can to go camping. Then I'll be taking a 4-week trip to the NW this summer with friends. I'm delighted with the change, and feel like it'll suit me much better than the HTT. While I loved it, I just wasn't using it like I wanted. Now I've got no excuses!


Laura -- and Jed

Beautiful! I foresee lots of "sick days from school" with this one!

Wow Laura and Jed, congrats on your new home! How long is it? Is Jed back to normal now, can he get in and out of the trailer on his own? I'm sure you both will enjoy it.

Beautiful trailer, Laura!
I hope you and Jed have many enjoyable trips!

What's your tow vehicle?

Very nice Laura... happy travels... dreams do come true...

Laura, really, really nice. Can Jed get up on the corner bed? I know my two couldn't. Ummmm? Sleep WITHOUT dogs? Don't think I could, I'm so used to being crowed and cuddled.

very nice rig, and definately like the bunk/storage area

Really nice and love the no carpet floor. Quite a bit of storage space and especially like the end table. Do you feel a cold coming on yet carold

Really nice - and Soos, my first thought was she had stolen yours!

I'm moving this thread to the room where we brag about our rigs - will be easier to find it later

What a nice looking trailer. That floor plan really does open the trailer up. Great neutral colors also. Enjoy your "sick" days. Linda

Ooooohhhh,... very nice!

Ya know Laura,.. i think you are looking a little pale,... like you might be sick? Surely you aren't going to school tomorrow with that beautiful new toy there to play with?

I really like the end table cupboard by the sofa,.. You are right, that floor plan doesn't need a slideout, very spacious. That's one fantastic rig, may you and Jed have lots of wonderful trips with it!

Oh, Laura! Congrats! It looks huge inside. I can't wait till you're first outing report!!

You poor sickly little creature....think you need a rest....doesn't your district give mental health days? Mine never did....but I took a few of them!

Karen, you might think that I'm cruel, but Jed doesn't sleep with me at home. That privilege is reserved for my 2 kitties. He's got a wonderful bed on the floor and is quite content there.

He slept with me in the old trailer just because I couldn't keep him off easily. But since this bed is a bit higher I'm hoping that he'll stay on the floor or on the couch -- which will be carefully covered to help it stay clean. I don't like have 70# of hairy, dead, snoring weight next to me in bed. Hey! Maybe that's why I never got married!

We'll see how things go on the first trip in 2 weeks. He may try, but I don't think he'll win this little battle.
