My bride and I went to take a gander at new Tetons today here in Portland. We noticed a real nice '05 Excel 33 RDO on the used....uhhh ....preowned lot. Asking $42,000. We had to go and take a look at it. This unit looked like BRAND new...and had the same color combos as our FLR. The basement, etc. looked like it never had anything in it. Many extras, like Atwood electric leveling, electric awning, fireplace, 4 slides, disk brakes and ect. From what I can tell PI only made this trailer for 1 year (2005). Makes you wonder why someone traded it in? Just have to wonder. I liked the floor plan, too. This unit still had the knobbies on the tires! None of the salesfolk knew anything about it. Enough for now. Tom

Hi Rockin Tom,
We have an '07 36 RDO and we love ours. I see that they are not listed in the '08 catalog which is a shame. We love the floor plan and there are many advantages, over the other layouts that we liked.

Linda,

I don't know why we didn't consider this floorplan as we ordered ours. Could have had anyone of them. Guess we got hung up on the 35 ft.,rear kitchen, and roadside door, which I still love. The computer desk and location is my favorite in the RDO. Tom
