flagstaff roof

[jeffscuda]

I now have a 2004 silverback by cedar creek and would like to trade it for a new 5th wheel. Because I have parking limitations I can not go longer then 31 feet . Most fivers this size are extra lite or super lite.I am concerned about their construction. for example the flagstaff super lite series has a foam laminated roof. They do not use roof rafters. Is this as strong as traditional construction. Your comment on this concern and other suggestion would be appreciated . I like forest river products and would welcome suggestions on other models .

I have a '12 Flagstaff 8528 classic ultra lite and I went up and installed a Wingman on the antenna the other day and I'm 310, I felt no flex or give what-so-ever.
