Sunset Trail Opinions Wanted

Hi all.

We are considering moving up a bit in size from our current 22' camper, but I don't want to move to a 3/4-ton.  With the truck I have ('08 GM 5.3/3.73 crew cab), I'm comfortable going up to maybe 6k lbs loaded.

I recently ran across an older Crossroads Cruiser ball-tow travel trailer, but the unloaded weight was right at 6k lbs.  I was very impressed with the build quality, and it got me to looking at the Crossroads line.  I found the Sunset Trail series and noticed a lot of the same "standard" build methods (i.e., plywood floor, walkable decking, 16" OC framing, etc.), but w/ a lighter weight.

So, I'm here to ask the obvious questions.

• Are you happy with your camper?
• Do you feel that the camper was a good value ($/quality)
• Did you compare to brands of similar weight when shopping (e.g., Rockwood)
• Does the company appear to be financially solvent
• Customer service

Considering that we probably can't shop/buy locally, all feedback is appreciated.

Knoxville, TN?  I'm not too far away!  If you don't mind me asking, where did you buy your camper?  I have not seen any new ones locally.

As you can see from the number of posts and replys the ST model is popular.  By the way not all dealers who have Crossroads carry the ST.  You could view the model you want somewhere else and try to get your local Crossroads dealer to order it.

I agree.  I looked at the small details like caulking and screw heads.  We also liked the true sofa bed rather than the jack knife sofa.  Im not sure why but I also liked the compartment for the gas bottles.
