[font face="trebuchet ms"][font size="4"]Thanks, Sean.  The pricing for the Jeep brand is significantly higher.  But the TowMini and Coleman brands are consistent with the QuickSilver prices.  The only difference I can discern in the Jeep brand (besides the name) is that it uses the off-road package.  Which clearly doesn't account for a $4,000 difference in price.

[font size="4"][font face="trebuchet ms"]I'm a newbie hoping to purchase a QS 6.0 in the next month or so.  Are there differences between the TowMini (marketed to Mini Cooper owners), the Coleman and Quicksilver?  It appears the factory in Indiana makes all them, just under different labels.  Is that correct?  As we're shopping for the best deal, it would be helpful to know.  Thanks.

[font size="4"][font face="trebuchet ms"]We're looking to purchase a QS 6.0 in the next month or two.  Downsizing from a Viking popup.  Looking forward to reading through the threads to get tips!

[font size="4" face="trebuchet ms"]We're downsizing from a Viking popup to a QS6.0.  We're in our early 60's and prefer the lighter weight of the QS6.  (We're very excited about it.)  We're reading everything we can to inform what we order.  We think these are the options we'll choose:  A/C, rear storage deck, awning, 7-way plug and privacy drapes.  We want to get a gizmo (wind/temp help) for it, too.  We're thinking to install our own carpeting.  Electric mattress pad and either the Laz-Z boy slumber air mattress or a memory foam mattress.  We'll use a ceramic heater if we camp in very cool weather.

Feedback?  Any other "essentials"?  We realize preferences vary with individual needs, but just interested to hear what others consider essential on the 6.0.  Thank you.
