Crossroads Carriage?

You would be much better off looking for a nice clean used Carriage Cameo rather than anything by Crossroads.

2017. Their service department has already looked at repairing it. The salesman didn't have the info yesterday. I'll pass along your repair info when I get back with them. I had similar issue with the HC doors. I bought a $5 latch from Home Depot. Kinda like the sliding shower doors. That $1 OEM latch is easy to fail or forget. We use spring loaded curtain rods in the bottom tracks. Thanks for all your help.

I drove up to Cleburne and looked at the Carriage and the Redwood. The Carriage was bigger, 41ft., vs. the Redwood at 37. The Carriage was a bit on the gaudy side, even for a RV. Not New Orleans bordello gaudy, but just a bit too much for me. The Redwood on the other hand was about right. Only issue was the closet door came off the track and was leaned up in the closet. It had just a few very minor scratches inside. Outside looked pristine to me. So now it's back and forth on the price. Probably pull the Montana HC up there next week. It'll bring tears to your eyes when they quote you trade in value. Got in the worst traffic jam I've been in in a long time. I-45 at Huntsville southbound shutdown to 1 lane. One hour of creep and brake, creep and brake. Good timing...4 day weekend and half of Dallas is headed to Houston.

What year is the Redwood again?? Front Closet.... on my *16* RL the front closet door came off during 1 trip.. They place a single piece of 90* corner angle to stop the door from going too far and rolling out of the tracks... That thin piece breaks.. I replaced that single piece with 3 pieces back to back and it never happened again... I probably spent $3.00 at Home Depot

The new Carriage was built in the same factory as the Redwood in Topeka In. both nice units but it always seemed strange to me that they are built in the same place and basically compete against each other for business, they now only build the Cameo line of Carriage which I think was their lower level line between the two. Good luck on your decision.

Like the B O Plenty said, there is absolutely NO relation or similarity to the Crossroads Carriage/Cameo and the original that went our of business after 40 years.
Lifestyle was started up in 2013 as a direct carry-over of the original Carriage but with improvements. They folded in 2016.
I agree that there are better choices in the used market than the new generation Carriage/Cameo or even the Redwood.
Good luck in your search.

SCRATCH THAT ITCH ! ! ! ! :B

The Carriage are nice, BUT NOT the Carriage of old..... they are a lower version of the Redwood

Unless its storming, I'm driving up there to look at that Carriage and their Redwood. https://www.pplmotorhomes.com/used-rvs-for-sale/fifth-wheel/2017-thor-redwood_rv-41762

The real Carriage went out of business about 2011. Lifestyle then came out by Evergreen and had some success building a copy of it. After they folded Crossroads bought the Carriage name and started building their version. Not even close to the original. I think there are much better choices.
