Need Advice Please

I'm looking at a 2005 Sunnybrook Titan Fifth Wheel ToyHauler.
SunnyBrook Brand ?
Any known problems or recalls ?
How do they hold up ?
Any info I should know ?

Thanks

Rick
  • Sunnybrook has always had a good reputation. We toured the factory in 2004 and were very impressed with them. I think you main question should be how well did the owners take care of their Summybrook?
  • What truck do you have to tow with?

    Those Titans are heavy........17,000/18,000# GVWR
  • Pretty good price....put the savings towards a down payment on a dually to tow it.

    It has a 'dry weight' of 12,000# which would max out your '05 2500 SRW

    Really need to weigh your truck fully loaded (camp ready....passengers, any stuff in truck, hitch etc.) to get the trucks weight. Subtract that from your trucks GVWR.
    That will give you 'available payload'........pin weight
    Using 20% of trailers GVWR will put you in the ball park as to what pin weight would be.

    Keep pin weight at or below your actual payload capacity.
    That will probably be around 12,000# (GVWR of trailer)
  • We too just purchased a 2010 Sunnybrook TT Sunset Creek 266RB. We take possession on Monday. Our RV shop stated Sunnybrook is a well made TT. A couple of years ago, Winnebago purchased Sunnybrook.
    We spoke to the owner of the TT and he stated he had some minor warranty issues in the beginning otherwise it was a great TT.

  • I was thinking that Sunnybrook as a manufacturer went out of business and then just recently Winnebago bought the assets.
  • Loved our Sunnybrook. Wish we still had it. Foolishly traded it! One of the Dumbest things we ever did. Something like new car fever!

    Nope. Your thinking is incorrect. Sunnybrook never went out of business and was still going strong when they were purchased by Winnabago.
