We just recently purchased a 2013 Wildcat 337FB. Would like to know what the feedback is. We are going to retire in about 2-3 years and was told they were better to pull. We had a Surveyor travel trailer that whipped around terribly. Looking forward to getting out camping.

The problem with whipping is not with the trailer, it is with the tung weight Any trailer will whip if the is too much weight behind the axels.

We have the 327RE. Pulls a whole lot better than bumper pull. Plus less labor in hookup.

Sadly, we recently sold our 2006 5ver Wildcat 31QB. We loved this unit, but unfortunately the kids are now older teens and the bunkhouse no longer needed! Best camper we have ever owned and we have had several. Sad day when we sold!

We had many great memories with our Wildcat! Very few issues and never needed any major repairs. Just normal wear and use. Sold it to a wonderful family with 2 young kids that was so happy to get it!

We shopped for a new Wildcat but could not seem to find the right deal. We went with a 2016 Shasta Phoenix with an "Old Folks" layout! Beautiful unit. Phoenix is also a Forest River brand and we can only hope we have as much good luck with our new unit as we did in the Wildcat!

We also search for the Wildcats on the highway and campgrounds when we travel!

Happy trails!

Should have kept the bunkhouse and turned them into a walk-in closet. That's what I intend to do when we upgrade our the present 5th wheel.

Our Wildcat will be at the FROG Rally in Goshen this year. Who else will be bringing their Wildcat?

Really? Only one Wildcat going to Goshen this year? I recall there were 4 or 5 last year.

We're registered again and plan to have ours there. Sorry, I was mowing high grass from our 2 week trip in the Texas Hill Country and didn't see your question.

We are proud new owners of our first Wildcat and love it so far. Over Easter we went to visit our son at college in Spokane. Here's our 28RBX at Nine Mile Campground.

Your "Here's our..." implies you attempted to post a picture. Here's how to do that:

  • Click "Manage attachments" A separate window will pop up.
  • Click "browse" Then select the file to be uploaded. Be sure that the photo is appropriately sized. 620 x 620 pixels (or smaller) and no more than 50K. Forums software will automatically reduce the size, but smaller size photos will upload much faster. You may select several photos to upload at the same time by repeating the last step.
  • Click "Upload" After pics have loaded close the pop-up window
  • Click "submit reply" to mount the text of your message - photos will automatically appear at the bottom of your post.

How to embed an image stored on another site:
You can do this by using image tags. Upload the image to a service like imageshack and then copy the URL of the image and put that between [IMG] tags. That will work well, as long as the host site stays in business and doesn't disable your image for overuse of bandwidth etc.

You can also paste in the location of a photo stored here in a photo gallery.

To do this: Paste the url of the image into your post. Then add the following code on either side of the url (with no extra spaces):

[IMG]url here[/IMG]

The image will appear where the url was in your text.

Well..... I wasted some clicking since you figured it out.
