Any Shadow Cruiser 290DBS owners out there?

So... another trailer I've added to my list of considerations is the Shadow Cruiser 290DBS. I've seen some posts about a couple of the smaller platforms but none for this specific model. Anyone out there have experience with this model? I'm also interested in peoples experiences with recently-built Shadow Cruisers overall. I'm comparing it with the following:
- Jayco 28DSBH
- Aerolite 282DBHS
- Bullet 281BHS

Anyone able to compare relative quality between the Shadow Cruiser and those listed above? as usual, I've seen mostly good comments about the Jayco. I've also spoken personally with a Bullet 281 owner who really likes it.

Whaddya' think?
  • I sent my Shadow Cruiser back. I wouldn't consider buying another one and I tell every one that asks to not buy one as well. Search under 280QBS.
  • Thanks for the reply. I've read a few posts about the axels and some general "meh" comments but for the most part, people seem to be fairly positive about the brand. I will keep it on my list.

  • We bought a 2012 Shadow Cruiser S225RBS a little over a year ago. We`ve put about 3000 miles on it so far without any problems whatsoever. Wed buy it again.
    Good luck!
