2013 36 ckts

We just saw this model at a local rv show, the new pearl addition and wanted to hear from actual owners about how they like or dislike it.

Thanks

In researching online I liked the looks and features if this coach very much. I attended a local RV show last week and it simply stood out from everything else I looked at. I take delivery in about 6 weeks!

hate my early 2013 because it lacks all the upgrades the late 2013 has. besides the trailair pin box being welded on about 1" out of level, have not had too many problems. the trailair required lippert to send welders down to fix it.

We also attended the recent NJ RV show and ordered the new pearl edition ckts , the wife really likes it and it has many upgrades to our current 5th wheel. Crossroads trailers was really great to work with also .

I'm just wondering what day you were there. I was there both Friday and Sunday. When I went back on Sunday there was a lady looking over the unit at the same time as me, could it possibly have been you and your wife? I also purchased from Crossroads with Mike L.

We ordered a 2013 CKTS a year ago. Really love it. Now with improvements, we look forward to having those on a new unit in a couple of years. Only regret is that I did not order thermo pane windows.

We will be at Sea Pirate the first weekend in May. 10 to 12 other units we do this every year. Used to go to Country Oaks in Dorothy A lot but probably will use Tall Pines Yogi Bear more for local this year. Usually a Few trips A year to Lancaster. Spring Gulch and Roamers. Then we have our week with the Gang (end of July) at J&D Campground near Knoebles in PA. (17 sites reserved for this year)

We use too go to Country Oaks as well. Love there big pool. Spring Gulch is one of the campgrounds we use. We've been to J&D when we had our travel trailer and the kids were little (went to Knoebles). I am sure we must of past you or camped in the same campground and never knew it LOL

Yea we probably did. Just not to many sites we fit in at Country oaks anymore. 42 ft long and 5 slides. plus they are charging as much as the CG s that I used to say were too expensive. So we might as well go eslewhere with more things for Nick to do now that he is almost 5.

We picked up our new 2013 36CKTS Pearl Edition just before Thanksgiving (2012). We upgraded from a Silverback 29RE. It's got all the bells and whistles the 36CKTS is equipted with including thermopane windows and a Trail Air pin box. I had an additional 110V A/C exterior plug factory installed just above the docking station for electrical power on the opposite side of the coach. We love the color scheme. The coach is definetly longer than the Silverback but tracks very well behind my F350.
