    New Kids on the Block in Northern California

    Hi! My wife and I just purchased a new 2017 Rockwood Mini Lite 2104S and took it out for the first time last weekend. Our maiden voyage was to the KOA in Healdsburg (Sonoma County), and that turned out to be a nice spot. We have been out of trailers for a few years (except for the horse kind)...

    Buying in California versus Arizona

    Hello All! I live in California, but I'm looking into purchasing a Cherokee in Arizona due to the fact that they tend to carry a lower price tag out there. I've done some research and have heard tell of differences in the design of Cherokees that are made in California versus ones that are...

    California Highway 101 over to Route 1

    Wondering the best route to get from Highway 101 (Cloverdale area)over to the coast. We are staying in the KOA in Manchester, I know the roads can be tricky, The straightest shot I see is Hwy 128 and then go south. Some of those mountain roads are tricky with a 30' trailer. Any thoughts ?

    California dealer advertised price = best price?

    I've been shopping for a fairly loaded Rockwood Ultra Lite 2304DS with a MSRP around $35k (inc. shipping) and dealer "advertised best price" of $24.5k to 25.5k at several dealers. This is nearly 30% of retail. Is this a "take it or leave it" best price or is there more room for a better price...
