Just looking for feed back. Does the 5th wheel group believe there would be an interest if a very similar unit were built by people who really know what a Travel Supreme was. Just curious. Look forward to feed back

Ron, with the demise of MOST of the high end trailer manufacturers of quality units, I definitely think that there is and will be a market for a quality high end unit such as the Travel Supreme was. I had a 43ft. model and had no trouble selling it even in this deep recession(only sold it to buy a new 07 T.S. Alante motorhome). Just my opinion but I have visited with quite a few full timers rigged to haul large well built trailers and they all share my feeling. Gene

Gene, thank you very much for the input. I am of the same opinion because of my experience selling against the Teton and Carriage products for quite a long time. It was truly a passion for me and a pleasure to represent a product second to none.

Yes. We were really going to buy our "dream" trailer when TS went under. Only thing that has come close so far is Newmar. Ther sure is a lot of what I would call junk on the market now.

There is a smaller group of RV folks that will pay a bit extra to get a truly well built trailer. They are looking for more than a big white box with lots of glitz. They want a solid base and the rest of the coach built to hold up for the long term.

The market is much smaller, but it is there.

I would love to find a new trailer built to the standards of our Silver Streak.

Larry the Newmar product is excellent however there focus is really motorized. Carriage is the closest thing to Travel Supreme you will find.
They will also do some changing for customers.

Hey Ron, Remember Us Roy L. and Karen L. We bought a 06 DS04 40' at your Orange County, CA. dealer ship in 06.
We named her Tessie. We're all doing great here in North Carolina.
We hope you and your Family are doing Well.
