Looks like the 36CKTS is going to be our choice....

Can I get the likes and dislikes for the 36CKTS? Anything we should look for before we sign...options that are a must??

The Hathaway Edition is standard equipment .
I would get the 2nd ac, Trump mattress , Highly recommend the dual pane windows. I ordered mine with the options mentioned plus large refrigerator, generator,separate recliners,ottoman ,level up ,slide toppers with metal wrap . These items were important to me as this is our home now .

We bought a new CC34RL this year and we ordered the following items. A 50AMP cord reel, theater seating in place of the recliners, the Trailair hitch pin, slide toppers with the metal wrap (3), Trump Home Luxury Queen Mattress, 6-poimt level up system and the rebond carpet pad. I would also order the Cedar Creek special package along with the Cedar Creek Explore package and the Hathaway edition.


We had the recliners in anothe model of camper and they would rub the wood work as they were swiveled and reclined.

We had been hesitant in the theater seating but I can tell you this is the right way to go. We have enjoyed the theater sitting.

I am not sure but I think you can no longer get the Goodyears, what is OE now is ST tires

We ordered our 34RL on Feb,21,2015 and the dealer stated that the unit will be off the assembly line on April,17,2015 per their latest update from Forest River. We should be able to pick up the Camper by the end of April according to the dealer.

Hope this helps!

We order our 36ckts The middle of March. We are asked if we would have it by May 1st they said we should. But now after reading some of the posts, I am thinking maybe not but keeping my fingers crossed. We have a trip planned to Myrtle Beach SC

7K axles for sure. Tires? Who cares, they will be cheap Chinese junk no matter what. Make a deal with your dealer to take them. Then, buy yourself a set of 17.5 inch commercial trailer tires and wheels. That will ensure an end to your concerns there.

That's the best thing to do

I would highly recommend the theater seating as the LazyBoy recliners are not that comfortable. We ended up going to LazyBoy and replacing them with new recliners for about $3,000. The difference in the amount of support is unbelievable. The Trail Air hitch is really great. On most roads, hardly anything inside moves. We also love our residential refrigerator and the dishwasher is absolutely wonderful. We opted for the queen size Trump mattress and it is so comfortable. The 36CKTS is a great floorplan and you will be very happy with it.

I want to thank everyone for all of the responses! We love our 2013 29RE Silverback, we have had very few issues. That's why we are staying with a Cedar Creek product. The CC 36CKTS will be our last one. We are adding all the necessary upgrades....
Now we just need to agree on price😊

Bogey, use RV Trader as your guide. You can search for the Model and what dealers are selling for. That will give you a good rule of thumb whether you are getting a good deal. I used this in December and it worked to my advantage.
