Finally Found 1
After missing out on a couple of Hi Lo's, we finally found one, although I had to drive 10 hrs 1-way to get it. A wonderful couple had it, and they can no longer travel. It is a 2004, 22T. We are so excited!

How did you find yours?
Also, how much was it (if you don't mind?)
Thanks!

This one we found on Craigslist. I just went to the surrounding areas, and checked those areas everyday. The problem is that I just could go out and look at them at the drop of the hat. I missed a newer one that was only used 5 times in Colorado, because I could get up there quick enough. I found a few 17' & 15' out there and considered going to look at them, since we are empty nesters. However, we decided that we wanted we wanted more room, and the 22' was the one we wanted. The prices of them ranged from 6 to 10k.

Congratulations on your 'new' Hi-Lo. The 22T was the most popular Towlite. We had a 1705T which we liked very much but decided we needed more room because we were spending more time camping. We traded it for the 2310H which is the same as the a 22T but with a few changes to make it more like a Hi-Lo Classic. We would have been happier with a 2209T but there were none to be found at the time. The length is the same, they just rounded it off to the next higher foot, it is actually 22'-11".

Good for you! I know the feeling about waiting, I truly waited almost four years to get the one I wanted. Then drove from south west FL to SC at the NC boarder in Feb! 1400 miles round trip. A year later, I went larger. The rest is history.
Congrats again, happy camping.

Well darn it, that's the approach I use. I was hoping you had some magical insight into where these things hide!
My wife keeps looking at a new conventional trailer, but I just don't want to spend that kind of money. Guess (fortunately) she's got the bug...
Thanks, and congrats on finding yours!

That's awesome! I was looking for one and gave up for a year or so. Then, one day, I decided to look on eBay and found one in Anthony, NM.... Only about 30 miles away. I bought it home that day.

I would of LOVED to have found one in Anthony! We are in Las Cruces, and it would have saved me 20+ hours on the road, and the gas. Anyway, we are very happy.

I think Hi-D-Ho runs a close second to Sparky's in Hatch, NM

Sparky's serves a GREAT burger too. These two are on the list of Top DDD's in New Mexico. I'm always on the hunt for the local places to eat that serve great food.
