I shopped for a new TT today

I looked at a number of new trailers today. I currently own a 2009 Crossroads Sunset Trail 27 RB. After picking apart most of them due to cheap and poor quality workmanship, I checked on the Rockwood Ultra Lite. The quality to me surpassed even the imagine. Now I need to get busy and see if my 2016 Ram Hemi will handle 6300 lbs. (Empty) and about another half ton full. Then I need to unload my current trailer. I think I'll try local first then go state wide. Trade in will not bring me much. Anyone own one of the Newer Rockwoods? Looking under the cabinets and the fit of the woodwork convinced me of quality work.

    It has been my observation that if you go in looking for poor quality and craftsmanship in an RV you will find it.

    But for some reason when you find the unit you really like, it seems a cut above the rest.

    So to the so called poor designs, a slide that blocks the bath or kitchen or bedroom when it is in; these are the result of giving the customer the other features they want in the floor plan.

    I would not buy it but it is of little significance to those who do.

    If you want it, someone will build it. If you want it at a price you can afford, then the options are a bit more limited.
