We are looking to buy or order a Cruiser 31 MK. A dealer near us has an 09 for around $30,000 but i think i want to order a 2010. Can someone tell me the differences between the two years. Thanks, Craig & Ginger

I have a "real" 2009 Cruiser, early 2009 Cruisers are even different!



Anyways, the later produced 2009 Cruisers have the newer tuscany interior wood color (no oak) and improved front cap, radius entry steps, upgraded fixtures, different propane/pass-thru storage and have more wheel well clearance along with standard Trailair.



The 2010's that were being built when I visited in late Spring added a hitch view to the front lower cap, changed over to a Jensen all-in-one ent. center and had a slightly darker carpet.



Other then that it was identical to my Cruiser. The factory put on the hitch view onto my 2009 and changed out the junk Pummel Drive system for the Jensen. So I guess I have a 2009.5 now??

If I under stand the process,they keep adding or removing items as the year goes on.Not sure if anything is locked in as a year lineup item.The later in the year that one is ordered,the closer your camper will be to the next year look.Even than they may remove something that you liked and change other stuff a little.My 09 Cruiser has glass door inserts for the top of the entertainment center and solid on the bottom while just before we ordered they had glass in both.The chairs were different before we ordered than what we got.Most the time the changes are for the better I think.

My 2009 built in August 2008 has all the upgrades mentioned by Mike. I guess mine was built late enough for the Jensen Stereo...which is actually pretty good.

Thank's everyone, We are going to look at the 31MK next weekend. We have narrowed it down to the 31 MK or the new 31 RE. Craig

It's so strange how they make their material choices. Mine is one of the first to roll off the line in late July with the new front end and features. The Pummel Drive was in mine but 4 weeks later you get the Jensen. That's wierd isn't it!



I like the Jensen unit that replaced the junk they had installed the first time.

Crossroads also introduced the Patriot Edition in late 2009.
