Cherokee vs Surveyor Differences?

Came across a used 2018 Cherokee 26DBH for pretty cheap. I've looked at the Surveyors a lot and Im curious if there are any differences between the 2 models?

Lots. The Cherokee is stick and tin construction while the Surveyor is filon-sided and aluminum framing construction.
Also the Surveyor has many standard features, that are options or not available on Cherokees.

Makes sense why the Surveyor costs more.

The new Surveyors are using "Azdel" siding which IMO makes them a step above. They are a great trailer for the price.

Yep, its a higher priced line.

Have you not even looked at either brand, in person?
Because if you have, you would have seen the differences.

We owned a 2016 Surveyor 26 SVT and we loved it ... traded it in for a 5th wheel ... unfortunately Surveyor did not have a floor plan that we liked at the time we purchased our 5th ... our Surveyor was very well made.
