This is excellent information that we will keep for future reference. Thank you so much for sharing this. We plan on going ahead to purchase it. Should have it next week if no issues arise on final inspection.

We have a 2006 Compass 33CKQ (33 feet, 4 slides) and took it from Saskatchewan to Arizona one winter. We stayed a few places where the water supply hose would be frozen in the morning but the trailer was warm. Probably just a few degrees below freezing so no real test. We have had the trailer for 8 years and it has stood up very well. Replaced the original Towmax tires with Carlisle and had blowouts so went with 17" tires and no problems. Replaced the LRE suspension rubber components and added greasable shackles last year (MorRyde says 5-6 years life expectancy so to be expected). Replaced the convertor 3 or 4 years ago and the batteries failed this year. Other than that everything has been great and I would buy another if they were still around. The dual pane windows reduce the noise and never fog up. This Compass has all the options and I can't see the difference between it and a Cameo. Maybe that is why it was only produced a few years.
