I have wanted one ever since I was a little boy. I have 3 little kids so I wanted to get one while they are are still small. We got a 2017 Heartland Pioneer QB300. The "QB" stands for quad bunks. I'm stoked!

Fucking sweet! What are you towing it with? Where do you live and do you plan to roll out soon? That's a nice unit, like the rear bumper carrier. If you don't have one I highly recommend getting a 1500W generator, equalizer hitch, 2X12v parallel battery set up before you got the road. Pictures of interior asap :)

Nice! You can see the country in those things. Better get some mirror extenders for your truck.

Well, right now, I'm using my Dodge Ram1500. Maxed out, the trailer is right at the limit. I have a WD hitch and I can hardly tell it's back there. I just got air bags installed, so that will be even better. We are going to be getting a new vehicle to tow it with so we can have everyone in the same car. Until then, my wife will follow in her minivan. We are leaning towards a Nissan NV3500. I just picked it up and brought it to our storage lot and I don't have any interior pics, but this is an identical one.

That looks awesome!

I got to see the inside of one of those last fall in Moab (ran in to some friends while we were out there, they were traveling all over in it). Very nice. Congrats bro!

Where's the first trip gonna be?

Believe me, I would, I just can't fit 3 adults and 3 kids in one comfortably.
True, most are 5 passenger. That looks like a great travel trailer. My brother in law got a similar one last year and he uses it constantly. Loves it.

I'm not sure where the first trip will be yet. It's still winter here in Wisconson, although it was in the 60s today. We'll probably do a few shakedown trips fairly close to figure shit out. We're planning on going to the UP and going to Makinac Island. Also, Door County, Wi. We will probably hit some National Parks this year too, not sure which ones yet. My sister has an RV and we are planning on meeting up in Yellowstone next summer in 2018.

Sounds fun man, enjoy!

In my youth I spent a lot of time in Wisconsin (I was a FIB or FIBWAB if you know those terms :)), including Door County and the UP. Love it up there. Miss fishing for and eating walleye. I have so many fond memories from up there. My best friends parents have a cabin in Hazelhurst (near Minoqua), and we'd spend time up there every winter and summer. It was awesome.

Buy the national parks annual pass for $80 iirc. Otherwise you're paying $20(?) for each visit. If you're unsure keep your reciepts for the one time passes you buy and you can put that towards an annual pass if you go on enough trips.
