We weren't looking for a "party machine", and that's the impression that the Tesla left to us. I also wasn't a big fan of the multicolored, flashing lights in the garage. The storage still wasn't what we were hoping to see (they have a pantry, but it's quite shallow), and all of the tables still used the older hole-and-peg legs that lock the table into one position. The cabinets they had were nicely made, but not ideal. It means that you can't ever go up in size without remodeling the cabinet. With the flat panels of today, there isn't a reason to enclose it. That's an older way of thinking that goes back to how mounting was required with older tube-type televisions. I'm also not a big fan of enclosing TV's in cabinets. There were also a few elements we didn't like. The construction quality was very nice - better than any of the others we had seen to that point. They also had very nice blackout blinds on the windows. It also had a built-in dishwasher, although RV dishwashers are very small and can't do large loads or large items. They use an on-demand (tankless) water heater. The layout of the bedroom with nightstands, the storage closet layout with the washer/dryer space, and the television layout in the main living area. There were some elements in the Tesla units - especially the 3950 - that we REALLY liked. At that show we came across two brands that we had not seen before - Tesla by Evergreen at the Parris RV display and Grand Design RV at the General RV display. Shortly after we moved, there was an RV show at the South Towne Expo Center. Then an opportunity came to move back to Utah, and it could not be passed up. We looked at some of the really high-end models too, and didn't find a floor plan that worked for us in any of them. We also had some real questions about their quality and manufacturer warranty support based on things we were reading on-line and in speaking with owners. The 3895 had a bigger garage, but other things we didn't like too. There were a couple of Fuzion and Voltage models that we liked, and we were leaning toward a Voltage 3950 - although there were a lot of trade-offs. It would be nice to be able to take elements from several manufacturers and put them together, but that's just not possible. One of the things you will find is that you see floor-plan elements that you love, but that just aren't quite perfect. We looked over all of the major brands, and saw a lot of things we liked, and a lot of things that we didn't. There are a LOT of RV dealers there, and a lot of RV shows - often held at casinos with exhibit space such as The Orleans or the South Point. Our search began while we were living in Las Vegas. Lippert bought Trailair in January of this year and they are still developing the other models. Is your current pin box a Lippert 1621? If not I can not help you as of yet. However, the ROTA-FLEX is only available in one bolt pattern. We now have a product called ROTA-FLEX which was designed specifically to address fore and aft. I just emailed TrailAir about the Rotaflex and got the following: The only write I have seen is with Toy Hauler Mag here: Where do you find the Equa-Flex for 199? I can't seem to find it on TrailAir's site '03 Chevy 2500 HD Crew Cab Duramax S/B, Reese 16K slider, Prodigy, Firestone Ride-Rite air bags, HitchHiker II LS 26.5RL, Trail Air pinbox, TrailAir Equa-Flex Suspension On my HitchHiker, I have the adjustable height suspension and to add the Equa-Flex, I had to install it on the center hole of the suspension mount on all three mounting points which raised the trailer an If you do not have an adjustable height suspension on your trailer it will not raise your trailer.

Have heard it does raze the 5er a little is this true. I am thinking about the Equa-Flex, have look at it on there site price $199. I do not know about the Rota-flex pin box, but I do have there same Trailair pin box for 5 years on two 5er's Looks like it may be similar to a Moryde pin box? I have the Equa-Flex suspension on my 07 Cedar Creek and well please with it. It has a "proprietary rubber compound" in the box that is suppose to absorb much of the fore to aft motion. Called Trailair and they sent me a one page brochure with somewhat limited info.(I could not find any info on Trailair web site) List price is $745 and can be UPS shipped. I first saw it in the March 07 issue of Trailer Life on page 64. Has anyone had any experience with the new Rota-Flex pin box that Trailair makes.
