Northern Lite Camper owners

I've been planning to sell my '94 Lance next spring and probably get a Northern Lite 9'6" camper. The lightest one without the basement. They list the dry weight as about 1725 pounds which is quite a bit lighter than my Lance. If anyone has a Northern Lite I would like your opinion as to quality and durability. I also looked at the Bigfoots. The same size Bigfoot is quite a bit heavier and on my truck, less weight is really a plus. It's hard to find a decent camper that doesn't take the gross weight way over the limit. The Northern Lite looks like one of the better ones as far as weight is concerned.
