Our new rv
We bought this over the weekend, a Springdale 189... Keystone (well, all the manufacturers) has some weird numbering system for their models and lengths, so I don't know exactly how long it is, but from hitch to bumper is 23' 7".
Sleeps 7, power tongue jack, power awning, AC, shower, TOILET! full sized fridge and freezer, and a bunch of other stuff that puts it pretty much on par with the motorhome my family had when I was a kid, but in a trailer.
We sold our '12 Rockwood Freedom tent trailer last week, knowing full well that we'd need another trailer in short order.
Looking forward to making lots of memories in it.

Nice looking trailer! That is a cool floor plan for that length, I like the sofa right there by the dinette, keeps the family together!

NICE. I think that is a nice size. We have a 2000 Mallard 26' no slide & I like it better than our 32' Tahoe with a 12' slide when it comes to pulling. The Tahoe is great for what we do now & that is it sets in an RV park 24-7, 365 days a year. I hope the next move with it is to a new owner.
The Mallard when behind our Dodge is like there is nothing there. The dodge pulls the Tahoe OK it is just a hassle to set it up. But I'm getting old & tired, I have towed that Tahoe over 8000 miles since we bought it new in 05. But given the choice the Mallard is it for towing setting up & short stays. To be honest the Mallard has a much better Refer & hot water heater than the Tahoe.

We have had a couple of TT's about that size - and have to say a good length. That's a really nice looking unit and with that bunk bed above the double is an interesting arrangement. As far as actual trailer - that drawbar is nominally ~ 3 feet, so you are in the 20 foot interior (where it counts!) range
