Elkhart Dealer Open House 22nd - 24th

Today starts the Dealer Open House in Elkhart where the manufactures display their new model year units to the dealers.

It seams most manufactures will release/ publish their "True" 2016 models this week or first of next week.

We have seen a few if the updates in the transition units, but soon we will get the official release of the 2016.

If you notice new models released on the manufactures website let us know.

At the Hershey rv show on Friday, I saw a floor plan on a hybrid i really liked and could not recall seeing before, it had the wardrobe on a small slide (curb side rear) with a door so that the back tent end was its own room. I picked up the Rockwood brochure thinking it would be in there. It is not. It also is not on the website. So I went to the md rv show Sunday hoping to get some info, they had not heard of this one (but the md fall show is really end of year stock clearance, so did not expect to see it there but thought they might have info). They mentioned the dealer open house coming up and they might see it there.

GalsofEscape,

Sounds like you like the new 2016 Roo 23WS. The only place I have seen the floor plan published is at RV wholesalers website: http://www.rvwholesalers.com/design/...rid-Camper-RV/

If I didn't type the link correctly just navigate to Rockwood Roo and on the right it the last floor plan at the bottom.

I thought it had a ws in the model number, did not know the 23 part. Thanks for the info. Yes, I liked it as we are two families using our current hw pup and this would be really nice.

These are the ones I'm aware of having new floorplans/features that I'm watching. (We are only interested in towables -- either TTs or Fivers):

Sabre Redesigns Fiver Lines; Intros Lite Product | RV Business

Forest River’s Wildcat Debuting Redesigned Fiver | RV Business

Winnebago Towables Debuts Lines at Open House | RV Business

Dutchmen Kodiak Ultimate Debuts at Open House | RV Business

Forest River’s RiverStone to Debut at Open House | RV Business

Highland Ridge Enters New Market with Ultra Lite | RV Business

Also Grand Designs is supposed to come out with a new line of lightweigh?? TTs and Tiffin (MH) is entering the Fiver market under another name, but it will be Tiffin owned and built.

Can't find any details on websites -- guessing they'll publish after the Open House ends later this week?

I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas -- even though we are probably a year or more away from buying "the next" RV.
