Has anyone seen the new Carriage? I noticed it is made by Crossroads.
I am wondering if they are of the same quality as the old Carriage? I have a 2003 Carriage 30rls. I know that Carriage RV went out of business around 2009-2011 sometime.
They are now made by Crossroads. Are they using the same construction methods as before they folded? Are are they following more conventional rv construction methods?

Does Lifestyle make a wide body? Everyone I have seen looks skinny.

We traded in our 2009 Carriage Carri-Lite for a 2014 Lifestyle. My wife and I don't see any difference between the two....in fact the back half is exactly like our former Carriage. We love our Lifestyle.

No matter how much lipstick you put on a pig...it is still a pig. It is nothinh like the original Carriage Cameos.

The Cameo made by Crossroads doesn't look anything like the old Cameo by Carriage. Like what was said above the Lifestyle unit is made like the old Cameo with some improvements --- nice rig.

Go look at one, or compare the specs on them.... I-beam frame, Lippert everything FIT, its got foofoo, but no bones.... Kinda like the cameo Thor came out with.... NO back cap on a Cameo?
