Northern Lite news?

Has anyone attended the RV show in Abbotsford and any new info?
I have been following them on Facebook and see they are progressing with the new factory.

Kinda hard to get any solid info on the new models.

Anyone have any info they would like to share?
  • November 1st is the start date for the factory to start production

    Thanks, guess I better talk to my RV dealer here about placing another order. I had one on order in January and it was in the middle of the production line when the factory burnt down.
  • I spoke with Keith on Friday,and he told me no 15' models, they will all be 16's. New molds are going to allow them to make wider & longer Tc's,some bath changes,and some more counter space in new galley's. November was his target date for factory. In closing he said he'd see us in Springfield,Ma. Curios to see the new line.

    ???
    Man...those are some LOOOONNNGGG TC's?!

    Will need tag axle.
  • I saw the Northern Lites in Abbotsford on Friday. Spoke with the rep there for a while. He was happy to be back at work after quite a break. He told me that there were 29 people in the line to get new campers when the fire happened. Only lost a few with most people waiting out the rebuilding process. That list will be built first, then more units to be shipped for shows to various dealers and then new orders. Northern Lites are the nicest truck campers I have even been in. I really like the Lances but when you walk into a Northern Lite, it just feels top notch in every area. My opinion of course.
  • We loved the Northern Lite's finish over the others but lack of capacities and slide made us choose another TC. If those items were not high on our list, that's the camper I would have had in my signature.
