[p align="left"]Hello,

I'm a new member from Indiana. I purchased a new 2015 21RBS several weeks ago. I towed it home empty in a 15 mph crosswind @ 65 mph. I didn't notice any sway , no WDH or sway bar, and got an average of 13.4 on flat ground. My average dropped to about 12.5 in the hilly portion of my trip. But, not enough road time to get an accurate long range average. I'm towing with a 1500 5.3 liter 4x4 Silverado crewcab. I fix most everything myself as the dealer is too far away to make it a cost effective trip. So far I've only had a few very minor issues. The TV couldn't find any channels, the coaxial cables were cross connected. Most of the edges on the cabinet doors are very sharp and I need to file an ever so slight radius followed a black Magic Marker to hide my work. The single entry step going into the trailer is adequate unless you're old and arthritic, consequently I use a little box, which I built two travel trailers ago, as an extra step. All in all I'm very pleased with the build quality and the fact that it contains NO WOOD.
Happy camping, James
