It sounds like Sabre is doing things like Wildcat and offering upgraded options as standard equipment. It's like 50 amp power, 15k A/C, 10 gal. water heater, brand name electronics, MorRyde suspension, 16' E tires, and other upper end options in a mid-range unit. Trying to give the biggest bang for the buck.

Dealers have the info bob, you should be able to call your local or not so local sabre dealer and get a price.

I'll call Cheyenne now on the 330ck

Interestingly enough most of the sabre dealers around here have quit carrying them.

I would want to wait a year after this retool and look again. The first model year thing.

Love the mid-bunkhouse layout, but gotta think that will end up in the 1 ton TV range. Agree?

Wow!!
They changed a lot. Different model names, colors, name/logo look, and they dropped quite a few models too.
I'll have to stick with my Palomino Sabre i guess since they dont have a 5 slide yet!

I'd have to possibly agree.
I'll see if I can get more info.

Supposedly a couple of weeks before they have specs on the mid bunk slide.

Turbs, see what you can do to push them on a mid-bunk house with 1/2-bath and outdoor kitchen.

Was shocked they had no outside kitchen in the sabres without a bunkhouse.

My other beef with most midship bunkhouses is the lack of closet space in them. With 2 kids, we have a ton of stuff.

I do like that Sabre copied the Brookstone with the optional loft. My daughter loved that feature.

I love how the article mentions the standard upgrades like windows, cabinets etc but nothing about the tires... Here's hoping..

Nice. It's still not quite what I'm after, but it's good.

I doubt I'm going to find "the" unit sitting out there. Oh well. What I have now is passable.
