Congratulations!! You will love towing a 5th Wheel! Takes a few trys getting use to backing after towing a TT but once you get the hang of it, it's a breeze!

Happy Camping!

Have a great time! We purchased a Fleetwood Prowler Bunkhouse in January after owning a travel trailer. We are enjoying it very much, and yes, it is easier to maneuver than a TT. Be careful of the tight turns... My husband didn't use the slider hitch, and the coach broke our back window of his 2500 pick-up. We learned the hard way! Enjoy!

Great! We pickup our Cruiser next month.

There are some changes to the "freshly built" 2009 models. Checkout my thread on the Cruiser owner's site. They include standard external speakers & Equa-Flex suspension, darker tones to the carpet/counter, richer looking oak cabinets & more.

Let us know how it goes!

Thanks, everyone!

We love the Cruiser! They did make some changes on the 2009 that we discovered about a week ago. We saw some pictures on the web of an 09.

These are the changes that were reported on the Crossroads website forum:

Larger baggage doors outside
Revised entry steps to reduce step up inside & outside
Revised wall paneling
Darker wood tone
Revised fascia board, slide-outs
Darker carpet
Changed counter & color
Upgraded window decor boxes
EquaFlex now standard
Outside marine speakers, standard
Revised front fiberglass nose cap
Paddle fan option published
New rear stab. jack design with longer travel
Accent changes including all fixtures
Available electric powered awning

We really like the changes.

Here's a picture from a rest stop today:
