Agreed. Also, did any of you notice that there is a new design to the Vibe Extreme Lite? Go to Couch RV's website. It appears the current 2015/2016 Vibe will be the premium model and there will be a lower end Vibe with a less aerodynamic front cap, less cabinet space, lower end counters, less cabinets in the bedroom and fewer floor models.
Also, I noticed a few Vibes with a higher end all electric fridge that is complete stainless. Looks like a mini residential model.
Also, why didn't the 308BHS get the black tank flush spinner like some of the 272BHS models from 2015?
How have all your tires been? Mine are D rated and have been holding up well. I keep the pressure right at 65lbs and they haven't given me any problems. I also noticed that they have a 75mph speed rating.

Wow. I don't like the flat front cap. One of my requirements was a fiberglass front cap. The all stainless fridge is the one we have. It is a residential fridge. Can't run on propane, but has an inverter to run off.the battery when towing. It is 10.7 cu ft. This fridge is standard on units built.after Sept 1. I believe my tires are the D tires with 75 mph rating. Only.2 trips on them so far. As for the black tank flushes... the units manufactured in Oregon has it, the ones built in Indiana does not.

I've been enjoying my 268RKS so far but I agree that a dedicated forum would make information gathering and sharing a lot easier.

Wonder if this is the best way to get that accomplished.

Not good enough
That is the same as putting Windjammer and Rockwood in the same thread.

Better than nothing but they are two hugely different lines of trailers.

When they started the section it was the vcross vibe, it was not until 2015 that the vibe line has been on there own.

There are still a ton of V-Cross owners, but as stated above, the Vibe is an entirely different line of trailer now. I rarely visit this forum because I have to filter through the V-Cross stuff which does not apply at all to my Vibe 308BHS. I wonder if an Admin has even see this request yet. Should be a 2 minute fix.

I sent a message to the moderator a couple of months ago asking for a Vibe only section, and noticed that they have combined Vibe with V Cross. I agree, should be separate....

I just sent another message to the moderator asking if they could please separate the two... Hopefully they will...

Up until about a week ago, there was not Vibe subforum. Someone had asked for that several weeks before that. In doing the research before adding the forum, it was discovered that the Vibe was a descendant of the V-Cross. The early Vibes were listed as the "V-Cross Vibe". The V-Crosses are no longer made, but the Vibe evolved out of that line. If you own a Vibe, post to the Vibe/V-Cross subforum. If you own a V-Cross, post to the Vibe/V-Cross subforum.
We try to keep our subforums to a minimum to avoid confusion, and that combo just seemed like the best way to do that.
