Nice setup, congratulations! And thank you so much for posting your experience. We're about ready to get a TT as well and the NoBo 19.8 is on our short list, along with the Jay Feather Micro 171 and Surveyor Legend 19BHLE. Each has some pros/cons, but ultimately I think any of the three will work for us.

Do you happen to know your real tongue weight by chance? We have a smidge over 700lbs of payload left to work when it's all said and done, so tongue weight is definitely a factor.

Appreciate the feedback and grats again on the nice looking rig!
I do, so our 19.8 is a 2022 which is 3838 as delivered, with our stuff loaded, and tanks empty it's about 550 pounds or so according to a weigh safe hitch I used to weigh it.

We looked at the surveyor legend 19bhle as well as the nobo 19.8 and it was ultimately the chaise lounge instead of dinnette that made the difference for us.

Awesome, thank you so much! I don't want to crest 600lbs loaded up (dry), so that's very helpful. I know the newer versions are a little heavier but that should be enough headroom overall.

We like the chaise design as well, it's definitely a fresh take on the space and seems like a great alternative to the basic dinette. Our benchmark has been the 171, but it's just a few a few nitpicky things with the NoBo and nothing we can't live with. I'm guessing we'll end up going with whichever ends up in stock in our general area, which honestly has been the biggest thing holding us back.

Thanks again!
