Naw. I like the LaCrosse and it's about as big and as fancy as I will ever want to have.
I don't think I have enough TV to pull a Sanibel anyway.
I do enjoy looking at the different trailers and seeing how nice they are. They are suppose to get one in at my dealer Friday. I'll have to stop by to take a look.

Yes, our good friends at Stoltzfus RV and Marine will be representing a large display of Prime Time products including the 3500 RL Sanibel.

I will be there for the dealer days on Monday and Tuesday. Our reps and Product Managers will be there for the retail days.

It's going to be fun to get some retail feedback on Sanibel. I remember when we launched Montana back in 1998 and I feel confident saying that this unit is going to generate similar excitement in the market.

Will the Avenger make it for "showtime" too?

I just spoke with the service manager at Leisure Time and he mentioned how Friday was going to be a big deal. Told me I should come if I'm able. I told him I already had plans to be there.

Are you going to have an Avenger there as well?

Sorry - no Avenger.

I'll be there around 9:00 in the AM and will be spending the day. I know I need to do some training with the sales group there and it sounds like there are various other activities that the good folks at Leisure Time have planned for the day.

I'm excited to be a part of the launch with one of our best dealers!

Trying to see the Sanibel...

Hello, my wife and I almost purchased (have only to sign the paperwork on) a Jayco Pinnacle, but we can't bring ourselves to do it. After seeing the pics and a very impressive sales presenation pdf (attached), we are dying to walk a Sanibel. Will there be any closer to Vermont than Pennsylania? Our local dealer and I have set up the deal, but I can't pull the trigger on the Sanibel without a tour. My only concern is the OSB, but the leak warranty helps me with that. I can't wait to see one!!! (literally)

AEON - amazing how fast people find new things on the web. We just posted that presentation and really haven't even told anyone it was there!

All of our Prime Time dealers will carry Sanibel. If you live in Vermont, have you checked with our dealer in Montpelier - Vermont Country Campers?

We are building 1/Sanibel a day right now so they are starting to get out but I'd have to do some checking on what a particular dealer's order status might be.

I was in several competitive units yesterday while visiting dealers including the one you mentioned. Of course, I'm biased, but I think the wait will be worth it . . .

AEON - I did some checking and found out we had not posted that training manual on the web site yet (which is what I thought). Yet, you have a copy.

IT IS NOT A BIG DEAL AND I'M GLAD YOU HAVE IT!

But, I'm really curious . . . did a dealer forward that to you? If so, I have to give them credit for their ingeniuty and speed

Yes, and it most likely saved me from a terrible mistake!
We were curious about the Sanibel, but the presentation took it from curiosity to "hey wait a minute". I am in Manufacturing, Commercial Cooking equipement, and I know what it takes to make a quality product, and that sales presentation shows Prime Time has the same orentation I would. We only have to see/touch one and I feel we will be signing the papers for a 3400RE in Toffee (rather than Slate).
I am very grateful they shared it with me, so I hope it does not put them in a bad situation! I am sure it will generate many orders for the Sanibel, due to the attention to detail and high level of finish.

We have checked with them, but they don't have one comming thier way until we order one, it seemed.

Are the 3400's in production yet?

Very cool.

We are thankful that dealers are spreading the word so it's not a problem at all.

Professional photos should be on the web in the next 2 or 3 days as we got them from our photographer last night.

Let us know how we can help!
