2008 Rockwood/Flagstaff TT's

Has anyone seen the floorplans for the new 2008 Ultra Lite Rockwood and Flagstaff TT's posted anywhere? I understand that the 7.5 ft wide ultralites are no more. Is this correct?

Thanks.

That's what I heard

Yesterday I placed an order for a Flagstaff 27BHSS. We spec'ed it out on Saturday. The RV dealer told me Monday morning of that they just received a price increased notice (go figure). Anyway, when she called and checked it out, she was told that they are going to an 8' trailer. She said there where no layout changes though, and the dealer ate 1/2 the price change. Boy I hope they update their website soon so I can confirm. If the wrong things changed, my wife will be upset!

Congrats and welcome.
Wider is better. Hope nothing changes that you don't approve of.
Personally, I think they just keep coming up with better ideas with new models.

From what I have been told Forest River changes over to the new model manufacturing in June or July. There are already 2008 models at the dealerships way up here. It is strange that they take so long to update their web site.

It's pretty common. Keystone is really slow as well...as far as the website.
I don't think they realize the power of the internet.

What I was told by our dealer was that in the May / June time frame that they change the year, but not the model. She said on Friday they make 07's on Monday they make 08's. However, she said around the September / October time frame, they actually introduce any changes (usually option changes), so I guess that would make it like an 08 and 1/2. Now I don't know this for sure, but it was what I was told. I am sure we will take the changes (take the trailer), I would just like to know what they are!

It may not be that they are slow updating their website. It takes a very long time To update a website. Each line of code has to be retyped for the entire page from what I was told by a friend of mine who is a web master with about 30 clients.
Just one floor plan may have up to 30 lines of type or 400 characters. She has spent as long as a month updating a website for a local charity that another friend runs that has only 3 pages to it.
I can see how a company like Forest River may be "slow" in getting their site updated if only one person is working on it.
