Hi, we are seriously thinking of buying the above listed trailer. we would greatly appreciate any info good or bad. We really love the floor plan and all the bells and whistles. Will be towing with a RAM 3500 CTD so are not worried about weight. Looking forward to any input you may have. Thanks in advance for your help.

Bought a Blackstone two years ago and love it. Have camped in Hope Valley at 19 degrees and had no idea it was so cold outside. Don't know where you are buying yours, but we got ours at Cordelia RV. The purchase experience was great, but the service dept., well that never went very well. I would make an appointment and they would never work on it for three or four weeks. I finally took the trailer back to the manufacturer for the past two summers to have things checked. They did a great job and never charged me for anything, even if I broke it myself. No problems so far this year.

I have a Wind River, one step down, same mfg. Outdoors RV is a cousin of Arctic Fox and is a great unit. There is going to be a Mfg rally in Oregon this summer and is talked about in length on IRV2 in the TT section that is dominated by ORV people. You'll see me there. Bottom line, it's a top line, well built, and really great looking trailer that will last for years. Lots of room in that unit, interior is the best. If you buy it and don't like it, I'll trade ya straight across. what dealer are you using?

Nice unit.
This is on our wish list as well. Big,heavy built and real nice appointed unit too. The one thing we also really like is where the entertainment/fireplace is situated so that you can look straight on from any seat in the house. I am not sure why others have not picked up on this type of rear living layout. Most you always have a seat or 2 that needs to look sideways or can't see the tv if you are in the wrong spot. Almost makes too much sense.
