We have decided to act on our solution to our downsizing dilemma. Soooo, our 2012 Cedar Creek and 2012 F-350 are listed in the Classified Section of this Forum. This presents an excellent opportunity for someone to upgrade. Don't wait too long, they are priced to sell.

If I'm not being too curious, did you find a shorter fifth wheel that fits your needs?

Yes, but no dealers or authorized repair within 1000 miles.

Ducky, what are you going to use as a tv with the smaller trailer?

LOL, you read too much into our solution.
Since we can't find the 5er within 1000 miles of here we decided to go with a baby A for plan A. Plan B and C will require that we retain the truck.

Good luck with both selling your unit and truck with your plan A, or with selling just your unit on plans B & C., but most of all with finding the best clout ion for you! We just got our 36CKTS, so I'm sure it's gonna be tough saying goodbye to yours, especially with that sweet paint job!

I guess I will keep the 30RL and turn it into a baby 36RE with out the 40ft length. DW does not like a class a, its what you like and sometimes the small spots you can't get into with a big camper. The 36CKTS is nice and if I ever quit moving around a lot I am sure going to get one, there are one nice camper

I looked at the price you are asking and it does seem like a good deal, I wish I needed a truck, my 12 3500 has 33,000 miles on it. It is a good deal

Creekless in Flawda
Fellow Creekers,
I am both happy and sad to announce that the Creek and I have parted ways. It's been a great 5er with very few problems. We really enjoyed
our full timer experience and our little 10,000 mi. adventure this past Summer. Hope to see some of yous guys along the way.
Happy Trails,
Just Ducky

Ducky, congrats and safe travel to you and Mrs. Ducky..*s Perhaps our paths will cross again down this highway called life. It is a rather small country, and seems to get smaller each passing year. Good luck! Mike

Ain't that the truth. However it's not looking good for a Shipshe gathering.
All 3 of the replacement contenders are made elsewhere.
Thanks Big M

No, we need the truck to deliver the Creek tomorrow. After that we are going to look at a truck camper sooooo if we like the TC, we will keep the truck. If not, we will put it back on the market. Here's a pic I just took with the Creek hooked up for the last time.

You think that might be a shock going from a big fifth wheel to a TC

You're probably spot on with that. I'm sure we will be spending a lot more time in
Parks so we will be outside. If we do go TC, I'm seeing a screen room in my future.

I'm a simple gal and what I have is working out very well for me. But your setup could make someone else pretty happy too.

Congrats on the quick sale! I bet it was tough to say goodbye to the CC!
Good luck with your next camper, whichever route you decide to go.
