Any body familiar with the AWARD brand travel trailer?
I looked at a nice 30' today.
I just looked on the internet and find that they are pretty scarce. I imagine my tt repairman will hate them more than he hated my airstream! Made in Canada, I believe. Tom W

WE bought it.
So on Saturday we went up and picked it up at schoolcraft Mi and camped one night at the Indiana Dunes park. It is very well built and has a lot of well thought out details. The overall quality seems equal to or better than the airstream, but the outside skin seems a little less in quality with more places that will require caulk. It towed easily and the first take on fuel economy is that it looks to be from one to two mpg better than the airstream was.
We towed without any anti sway or leveling devices and it was very comfortable enen without them on a very windy day. It weighs (supposedly) only 4200 compared to nearly 8000 for the airstream. We like it a lot. The queen sized bed sleeps excellently.

Pictures please.
We camped at Indiana Dunes a couple of years ago and took the train into Chicago to see the Darwin exhibit at the Field Museum. Had a great time. Climbing those dunes would be good physical therapy for your knee.
