We love ours as well. It is a very comfortable, livable home on wheels. We don't have the dinette, but opted for the power sofa/recliners/bed and use some nifty foldable tables for meals inside. I miss the extra horizontal space that the dinette would afford, especially when preparing meals inside, but everything's a trade off.
We love the fact that there are many options for power, water, sewer, television which gives you a lot of flexibility in how and where you choose to camp. Just returned from a 3 month, 8500 mile tour of the country. In some places we stayed up to a week and others just a night. We found that once you get used to hooking up and setting up, it really takes very little time or effort. One of my favorite things about our rig is the 17' awning, which really makes a difference in not only keeping the rig cooler, but also in creating a nice outdoor area.
Our MPG is about the same as Tom's....in the 9-10 range and about 1 mpg less when towing our Ford Edge. I can do better than that by keeping a close eye on the ScanGauge and staying in the best MPG zone in relation to RPM, but that gets a bit tiring and not generally worth the effort.
Lastly, we love our wood floors! Very durable, easy to clean (even with two little furry dogs), looks great and is a bit classy.
