Cylcone 4200 - Does it exist?

Anybody have any info on the Cyclone 4200. Can't find anything on the internet other than "it's a secret"

    Interesting. I wonder if an RV builder can execute a lift as well as a race trailer builder? I have my doubts, but if they can do it.... neat!!! I'm been browsing stackers every once in a while, except it seems like to get decent living accommodations, price makes a BIG jump, and the LQ stackers all seem to have air-brakes.


    Seems like unneeded weight for a TH. Lots of hydrolics needed to make it happen. Espe ially for the rear where your toys will be.

    What? You mean a quality product? :R


    Couldn't resist.
  • Yes, I am still holding on. Put on 340w worth of solar and a good controller a few months back. Just a little curious about the Cyclone 4200. However, if I abandon ship, it will be to a class A and 30 box trailer. However, I have to fix my soft garage floor before I can do anything. What kills me are the actual MSRP for the new toy haulers... 100k+ I know it is just a starting point in the negotiations but really, 100k+ for a non motorized toy hauler?
  • What! The last original 2005 Raptor 3612 owners looking to abandon ship? Say it isn't so.

  • Based on a couple different posts on the Heartland Owners forum, the 4200 is scheduled to go into production this summer. Until then all details are top secret.
