Hey Buckaroo--I believe that current trailer makes you an honorary member of the V-nose crew.

Would like to hear more about your RMNP trip and Colorado Springs trip. We are heading out on 7/14 for the Badlands and Black Hills and then will drop down through Colorado. Plan on staying in Estes Park, Buena Vista, and Colorado Springs areas before heading back home. Where did you stay and how were the parks?

Count us in as a member of the V-Lite family. We got our 30WRKSS last Friday and absolutely LOVE IT! We have the only V nose trailer in the seasonal area of our CG.

It is located under the pantry that will be on your right as you walk into the master bedroom in the back.
Just unscrew the right side hinge, leave the left ones alone, that way it will just open like a door. That is also the location of the water pump and valves for winterizing.
Good luck and remember the pics, we love them.

Father's Day weekend camping trip at Stockton State Park on Lake Stockton, MO and only one v-nose of any kind in the campground--ours. Starting this Wednesday, long trip down through Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and not sure about the return route yet. Should be around 2000 miles. We'll keep looking and counting those that belong to the pointy nose family!

We got home yesterday from 11 days and 1600 miles in Colorado. There was 1 Windjammer headed west on I-70 at mm235. Other than that one sighting ours was the only pointy nose.
If you get the chance, check out Mountaindale Cabins and RV park just south of Colorado Springs. Excellent park to stay in, only drawback it is about 30 minutes from Colorado Springs.

We just got home from a 2250+ mile trip that took us through 9 states, stayed in 4 campgrounds, and 7 days of travel. We only saw one v-nose trailer and that was them leaving the Kentucky "Welcome Center" across the median from us traveling in an opposite direction. Could not tell what brand it was but it was of the newer, darker color scheme and probably in the 21 to 24 foot range.

Ours was the only V-nose we saw at Potato Creek SP (IN) this past weekend.

Well, add me to the club again. I pick up my 30WFKSS this Thursday.
Went with flagstaff over rockwood as we liked the front kitchen and figure it would fit us better than the front bunk models.

We were in the Kentucky Welcome Center in Paducah on 6-12-12 and headed toward Illinois.
Saw a large V nose on I-80 in Nebraska heading east near Grand Island on 6-20-12.

Drove from Michigan to knoxville Tennessee and saw only one vnose in mid Ohio. It was about 21 feet long and said viewfinder on the side. Also was grey in color. None here at our campground.

No Windjammers here in Camp Hatteras so far this week, but there is one other pointy nose.

Saw a 20' (or so) V-Lite going East on I-80 30 miles East of Winnemucca, NV around Noon today (6-29-12). Also saw about a hundred flat noses and 5ers going in the same direction between West Wendover and Fernley, NV today.

Bought a 2012 Windjammer 3008W and had it delivered to my seasonal spot 6/13. Its the only one at the campground.(I believe) Sort of new to RV world. Are these new design/models? Wife and I love the floor plan.

We are staying at Waterton Springs this weekend just outside of Waterton National Park and there are 2 Windjamers here besides our V-Lite. The campground wouldn't make my top 10 list but the Park certainly does. We spent the day golfing Saturday on the Les Furber design course that has some crazy long par 3's then did some hiking on Sunday and took a ton of pictures.
