Ordered New Cedar Creek

Placed an order for a new CC 311RL with the following options:

4 Camera Safety Security System
Self Regulating Bedroom Wall Heater
Truma On Demand Hot Water Heater
Battery Upgrade (4- 6V batteries)
2nd 190W Solar Panel
Heat Pump on Main Air Conditioner
Slide Room Awning Toppers
Thule 2nd Slide Room Power Awning
Luxury Queen Bed (wanted a little more room on the sides)
Stainless Steel Dishwasher
Washer & Dryer, Front Loading

Now the long wait until it is built and available to go pick up.

This will be my first 5th wheel, I had a TT before this. Tow vehicle is 2019 F350 DRW with the B&W 25K hitch.

Jblack, you have a similar config that we are looking at. If you don't mind sharing, what was your out the door price? We are trying to get an idea of what folks are paying for these CCs.

If you want an almost instant quote, go to the website of Couch RV, pick your camper and add the options you want. Within a few minutes a price quote will be emailed to you. This is where I purchased and even after putting in my info they did not pressure me to buy. That will at least give you a starting point to take to another dealer to see if they will come close.

Sounds wonderful. Should be really nice once you get it. Wondering after all of the additions that you included, why didn't you get double-pane windows? Will help with heat, cold and noise from the outside.

Enjoy!

I considered this, but from the people I spoke with told me that the black our shades help just as much with “R Value”. I did not consider the noise suppression angle at all, it might have helped.

I ordered double pane windows as an option with my 2018 36CK2 5th wheel to help eliminate any condensation like I use to get in my TT.

With my TT I only had issues with condensation from the sky lights. Guess I will see.

Your 311RL purchase

We are also purchasing a 2021 CC 311RL. What did Couchs ask as a purchase deposit to order your new custom built 311RL from the factory?

We are ordering our '21 311RL most likely today built to our specs at Cedar Creek. We are also getting the second solar panel. Would you happen to know if the panels help charge the batteries while in tow? Would be a sweet thing if they do!

I also had an extra one added. It will charge as long as there is light. Also the way it is wired it continues to charge even with the battery cutoff engaged.

Such a sweet sounding system! We ordered everything you did except the heat pump, insta hot and ordered the king bed. Now the wait begins but to order it optioned to the hilt is awesome.

311rl order

I don't see anything about self leveling system.

Does it come with 6 point level up or do you have to order it as an option?


Have it on my 36CKTS.

Wouldn't have a unit without it.

On the Cedar Creaks the 6 point auto level is Standard (actual listed in one of the “mandatory” packages). All hydraulic.
