Are Windjammer trailers an endangered species? - Page 7

Would definitely be a sight to see. You'll have to let me know about the year of your trailer also. My dealer told me that mine would be a 2013.

pbrackney · 04-23-2012, 08:28 PM

J it will be a 2013 for sure. I did a factory tour where they build the Windjammer and V-Lites in Mid March and everything coming off the line were 2013's. The only change I really saw at this point are the wheel rims.

Check out the link below. It is of a 2013 V-Lite 30WTBS. In the pics you can see what the wheel rims look like. I think they are nice looking and I also think they will be easier to clean. The only other difference will be the value of the TT. They will be worth more since its a 2013. The Windjammers and V-Lites are the same TT, just different decals on the outside and different interior colors. Anyway let me know what you think of the wheels.

If you guys are going to South Dakota in September, make it 3 Windjammers. Mine will be pushing an Ecoboost F150. We are going the week of Labor Day

I'm pretty sure it will be a '13 as well PBR. I think I like last years wheels better...
J, I'll hit my dealer up tomorrow and see what I can find out.
Sounds good Randy!

I'm planning on being on the other side of the Black Hills the end of May. Little town called Edgemont. A buddy and I will be spending 4-5 days up there doing some pest control on one or two of the ranches in the area.

Gonna be a lot of funny looking campers behind Toys there real soon.

Oooooh! Can I bring my AR-10 SASS?

Hey guys thought you would like to see this post if you have not been to it yet. It is a post filled with pictures of the factory where they build our Windjammers and V-Lites, along with the Ultra and Signature Flagstaffs and Rockwoods.

It is a cool process to watch.

Why not? I know at least one Bushmaster will be there.

Spent the weekend at Wallace State Park near Cameron, MO. One V-Lite in the campground. Gave three tours of the Windjammer to people walking by.

I had the opportunity to pass a Windjammer being pulled by a Chevy 2500 on the way home from just purchasing a new/never registered 2011 V-Lite. The first Windjammer I have ever seen on the road. It was pretty neat having them side by side for a minute going going down the freeway. We were going up a long hill (the only one in Illinois) and I took him by surprise. He only had one sway bar on it and it did the Hula as I passed him.

We stayed at Weston Bend State Park this last weekend. Campground was full and ours was the only Windjammer in the park. First time for us at this park and would recommend it. It fills up fast on Friday's since it is close to KC.

Hope he didn't end up with a grass skirt!

Got to wonder about "surprising" someone pulling a trailer and doing it with a single sway. He needs to get on the forum and learn some things.

Another trip and not a single V-nose in a full campground. Did pass one (V-Lite) going the opposite direction when I was about 20 miles from home. Guess we'll have to wait for Memorial Day weekend and look again!

pbrackney · 05-06-2012, 05:15 PM

I will be out in mine on Memorial Weekend for the first time.

Old car · 05-06-2012, 08:20 PM

Hope you have a great first trip out in your new V-Lite. I hope you enjoy yours as much as we are enjoying ours.

Rebel702 · 05-06-2012, 09:26 PM

Heading out in the AM. Pomme de Terre State Park in Missouri. Spending the week. Will keep a sharp eye out for other pointy noses.

Rebel702 · 05-09-2012, 12:28 PM

A VCross just pulled into the campground. Lots of empty spaces if anyone wants to join us! Hermitage campground in Pomme de Terre State Park. Have to go say Howdy

Old car · 05-09-2012, 12:37 PM

You should be enjoying some nice weather down there Rebel. Wish we could be there but we're parked until Memorial Day weekend. Arrow Rock State Historical Site that weekend. Have fun!

Rebel702 · 05-09-2012, 07:55 PM

Going up to Long Branch SP from here on Sunday. Four nights so Pat can do some genealogy research. Will keep an eye out for more pointed noses!

mike2tall · 05-12-2012, 08:45 PM

I guess we will just miss each other Rebel. We are going to Long Branch this Friday the 18th. Both my mom and dad's family are from that area. My grandfather (great a few times) went to that area from TN in the very early 1800's.
