Just received latest issue of TL and on front cover they state that the model featured (FR's Cardinal) is companies flagship 5er. I recall not to long ago this discussion came up as to which one is FR's top dog, Cedar Creek or Cardinal. Concensious was Cedar Creek was the top dog. Folks still agree or disagree?

We got the magazine too. Nice looking FW and I like the separate office. What I don't like and see in all if not most today are the islands in the kitchen. We stop at roadside rests and even sleep there and you can't work in your kitchen with islands and slides up against them. Well, that's for another discussion.

I read that article too. I happen to own a loaded Cardinal, but buddy owns a CC Hathaway edition. I've spent a lot of time in both and would say that they are pretty much equal in build quality and content. But FR also manufactures RiverStone. I'd consider those a step up from both Cardinal and CC.

We love our signature CC - as members of the CCRVOC, their customer support can't be beat!! We have first hand experience with that.

As to which is tops - both are good. I'm sure if the article was about Cedar Creeks the title might have said the same for Cedar Creeks.
