... so I felt it was not appropriate for me to post this in the Classifieds section.

I just saw this video, posted about 2 weeks ago by PPL in Cleburne, TX for a 2014 5.0 trailer. I was searching for 2014 to see if it was tandem axle, which it is, when I discovered this. $29,899

Pretty cool unit; the old aircraft-style body, looks to be in great shape. It's a consignment dealer, so you might be able to get more details from the owner.

Can you explain to me the old aircraft body style? Having flown airplanes 55+ years I see airplanes where there are no airplanes but I missed the airplane in this 2014 5.0.

It’s just that the body and door are both curved on the older models, a bit like a fuselage. You can tell them apart because the newer ones are flat sided. The older ones are preferred by some because they are a bit wider at the "waist" and have a spacious feeling inside, plus they are quite charming.

Got it, thanks. I'll know next time.

Also the "airplane door" was more noticeable in some of the older eggs, like the Scamp. Smaller door and more pronounced curve. Always reminded me of a Beech 18 door.
