Has anybody gone from one model to the other? If so your input is greatly appreciated.

In the interior you will notice more solid wood doors. There are small details such as drawers instead of shelves. As they go beyond that, I think their attempt at luxury just makes things look tacky. It holds true for almost all RV brands. But that's a wife's call. Where it really matters is construction details. Good luck in wading through their web site for that information. They are great at building trailers, web site..........

I agree. Just more cosmetic bells an whistles.

I, along with a few others would like to see a 26-28 ft OAL trailer in the Blackstone level with max slides. The 26-28 length is just easier to get into many campsites.

ORV improve their TTs every year. Our 2013 Creekside 20FQ is a long ways from Fleetwood Malliard 20FQ it's based on. When maneuvering a TT into a campsite the length of the tongue is important . Short tongues limit how tight you can turn the truck. I had a dent on the front of our TT from my wife saying turn sharper first time out. So measure the tonque length, not just the TT length.

To me, the two biggest differences are the solid surface counter tops and the weight.
