Hello from snowy Michigan!

Hello and thanks for welcoming us to your forum. My wife and I are about to pull the trigger on the Crusader 5'ver 335BHS-TE (our kids are growing like weeds and we have outgrown our TT). Well, after a LONG time of looking, research, and walking through countless units, we have elected to go with the 335. This is a brand new floor plan from Prime Time and I think they really hit the mark on this one. I hope it provides us with years of fun and safe camping!

Congrats on your new Crusader and welcome to the forum!

We love our Crusader and I am sure you will too. Alot of bang for the buck. Did you order a Touring Edition?

Sounds like you have found the right RV for your family. Doing the research ahead of time can pay off in long run.

Happy Camping!

Congrats on your decision on the Crusader. My wife and I just ordered a 325RES Touring Edition at the GR RV show. Much like you, we did a lot of research and found the Crusader to be the best value and quality.
Can't wait till April.

Thanks everyone. It's been ordered and should take about 6-8 weeks. Can't wait! DnD, yes we got the Touring Edition in the Champagne finish. Has some real nice features and will hopefully look awesome with my maroon F-250.

Hey SD10, also from (today, dangerously) snowy Michigan. We're taking delivery of a 335BHS Touring Edition next Friday! Moving up from a Prime Time Tracer 3150BHS, very excited! Where are you located and who did you purchase from?

Sweet! We considered the champagne finish but decided to stay with the high gloss white in the end. Kinda second guessing myself now. It'll look great behind your truck!

on the dangerous part. Wanted to wrap my kids in bubble wrap before going down I96 today.

Welcome and congrats on the purchase! Spring is ALMOST here, right??

Welcome to the forum. We liked the crusader, as it was one our final choices, we ended up choosing the Columbus instead and we are happy with our decision. Enjoy your camper as we do!!

We are from Grand Ledge, near Lansing but check out the weather in Mi daily on my PC with weather.com and WILX Ch.10 in Lansing. We spend our winters in Casa Grande AZ and are happy to not be back there in that stuff. I drove a Semi all over Mi for 30 years and I know how bad I-96 and 75,69, 131 and 31 and 127 and all those other slick roads can be. We don't miss it at all and hoping you reading this can get away from it someday soon. I see where tonight heavy snow is covering the State. Bummers.. Be careful up there and stay warm.
