Carri Lite is a Great unit! Our first 5'ver was a 1994 Carri Lite Emerald. We didn't know anything about RV's at the time we bought it, but became VERY educated about them since buying it. We were LUCKY....we bought a high end unit, less than NADA, that was in perfect condition.
Unfortunately, sadly we sold it in 2007.
We have now purchased a 2004 Gulfstream Yellowstone that I am in love with. Again, immaculate condition, GREAT price! And, know that we were educated, we knew what to look for, what we did NOT like about our first one (living room entry) and what we wanted in this new one (mid entry into kitchen).
If the Carriage is in GREAT condition, you can't go wrong with the way the unit is/was built. I think what is also important is DO YOU LOVE IT????
