In the fifth wheel class only...... What is the higher model... The Cardinal ... Or the Ceder Creek??Or is that a loaded question?? Or is that a question that is based on preference??

Cedar Creek is considered top of the FR line. However I believe Cardinal is pretty close behind. They are built in different plants with slightly different specs and processes. To compare you have to look at specific things to make a valid comparison.

I like the fact that the cedar creek has hung walls rather than vacuum bonded walls like cardinals. Other than that, they both seem to be very nice with similar options. I like the full body paint better on the cardinal.

Very close but the FR dealer told me CC is at the top.

I do not think Forest River classifies their products top to bottom.They buy manufacturers and let them run their own operations.The CC and Red Bird are very close, however Forest River has the Dynamax Trilogy and Sanibel high end units. Chris

I would think it really depends on the person as both the Cedar Creek & Cardinal are nice units, the Triolgy is no longer made and I even think some would want to add the Columbus to the mix in the Forest River line up.

Yes, you are correct.

The bathroom countertops and interior steps are thermo-molded composite materials.

Think a thinner version of "Corian"tm

Stainless in the kitchen...

It was the Solitude 375 and It was the bathroom counter top ...not the actual sink... The sales rep stated that it is the same material that the steps are made from...every one I walked in , I knocked on the counter with my ring finger..... Sounds hollow
