When we bought Vegas, we also looked at a Sunstar and an ACE. A few things concerned me at that point while still working. 19.5" tires, weight in yard at South (edge of Everglades) and GCVW/Cargo Capacity.

I liked the Sunstar interior but overhang was extreme on 158" wheelbase. Cargo capacity was light and GCVW was light.

The ACE had longer wheelbase but light GCVW and cargo capacity.

It seemed both may sink when parked next to pool. The Vegas initially made a couple ruts but a few wheelbarrows worth of good fill cured.

The Vegas was lighter overall so it did not sink, lower (less tree limbs to cut) and was effectively new, both of the bigger units were a few years old and same price.

When we take racecar away, is no issue to take the Vegas into town for food, fuel or parts.

The thought of getting something bigger is losing all appeal as we progress.
