I like the 22RBPR, and have one on order. I went through lots of other RV's at the different shows and dealer lots. For me I kept coming back to the 22RBPR.
The kitchen's overhead door is plenty high to be out of your way, and it provides shade and even some rain protection if your cooking when a thunder cloud happens to let lose right above you. If you don't need the outside kitchen, then I would suggest you look at the Laredo 240MK. It's really nice and comes with a 50amp
service instead of just the normal 30amp. That allows you to run the AC, microwave and a coffee pot all at the same time. It was my second choice. My third choice was the Cougar Xlite 21RBS, it has the same floor plan as the Laredo. For me the outdoor kitchen, slam latch front storage, and a little less weight were my deciding factors.
Oh and welcome to the group!!
