Jerry's? We bought a popup from them several years ago. First class place IMO. Welcome to the forum.

I think all of us want to know but apparently he is not telling and just teasing us!

Sorry, for the late response. New floor layouts in the Rockwood line. Carpeting is going away for a more durable tile like floor. No more Concertone Radio. Have had no problems with the G-3 or G-2 radio's by Genisys. (Verywell could be Concertone anyway). Easier to winterize, have direct flushing for black system. Better entry steps, nitrogen standard in tires, bigger tv's and power jacks and stabilizers are some of the changes.

I thought all but the less carpet was a standard on the 2012's? I should get mine in about a week and when I ordered it (at that time it was a 2012) it came with the inlet for antifreeze, inlet for black tank flush, nitrogen for tires, and at the genesis sound system, and power jacks/stablizers.
It will have the model year 2013 but my understanding at this point is the only change will be different aluminum rims.

If our TT isn't built yet will these changes be in ours. and could you be more specific on the changes I heard they went to two entry steps instead of three on the ultra lites. also did away with the full tv cabinet and now have half cab.

Hmmm, mine is a 2012 Rockwood 2109S and I have 2 steps, dedicated inlet for antifreeze, Genesis sound system, no carpeting but vinyl tile floor,but no N2 in tires and not sure about black system flush. Just picked up unit so haven't had time to get very familar with it.

Pbrackney Looks like where getting a lot of different answers about the changes ? So I guess will just have to wait and see for ourselves when we pick them up. Some of the changes I have seen on internet are the steps and the tv cab. and both disappoint me but what can you do.I am driving my self crazy.

jdefeo1 Me too. I am so excited I can barely stand it. I have been researching, reading, watching you tube, etc... on everything I can about the trailer and the like. I even when to Indiana and did a factory tour. The factory tour that I did only made the V-Lites, and Classic Super Light TT and 5ers. The only change that I saw in that factory was wheels. I guess ultimately we will only know once we get our trailers.
This is my 4th trailer and hope to have it awhile. At least till my 4 kids are grown up. When do you hope to get yours?

LOL DW Just read your post and told me I should go hang out with you because I have been doing all the same things , with the exception of the factory tour (which I would have done if I could have gotten away from work)! Hopefully the trailer will be here soon.

Hilarious. My DW just said, "Are you on that forum with the trailers again?" She said I am addicted to anything that is dealing with the TT.

Some TT have 3 steps and some have 2 steps. It depends on the specific model and length. It seems that the V-Lites, 5rs, and Classic Super Lites have 3 steps while some of the Super Lites, & Micro Lights have 2 steps and some may even have 3.
I guess you really will not know till you get the TT.
Makes it fun to talk about though.
