We made a deal today to trade for a new HitchHiker 37 CKRD Champagne, it'll be the end of the month or more likely next month before I can pick it up in Kansas. (850 miles one way)

Quad slides, hydraulic disc brakes on 3 axles, Hydraulic front and rear jacks, two air conditioners with heat pumps, surround sound, weather pro awning, Mor Ryde suspension, built in central vacuum, aluminum wheels, and the list goes on and on.......

Wow, is right. That looks like a nice Condo on wheels. Does that come with a generator and or an invertor.

That's one beautiful 5-r. Love that Palladian window in the dining room - very elegant. Many happy travels!

Hey Bob,

Thanks for the picture of the 4500....no plans on my end to get anything like that. The UVW for the 37CKRD plus all my stuff puts it right at the max tow rating for my GMC. With the hydraulically operated disc brakes on the triple axles, I should be able to stop it fine.

We fell in love with that floor plan at an RV show in Florida last winter but for various reasons weren't able to deal on it. We're leaving in a couple weeks to drive out to Kansas to pick this one up, looking forward to getting it.
