ya think just maybe there could have been a conflict of interests?
Any how what ever it was it led to a parting of ways apparently.

I would think this will put some more people on the hot seat now. I wonder if we will see some more domino's fall.....

I sure thing will continue the same at CrossRoads. Wham Bam..make them as fast as you can. With no quality control. Faulty A/C installation. Poor heat duct installation. I can go on and on with my 2013 Rushmore Jefferson problems. That I have fixed correctly my myself. CrossRoads rates very low in my book in quality control issues.

Could be just the opposite too. Sometimes the "squeaky wheel" just gets replaced! Time will tell.

I agree, he got canned. I've seen these announcements with the company I work for too many times. "So and so has announced his retirement effective immediately. We appreciate his years of service and wish him well in future endeavors." No doubt this gentleman was prodded along.

There is no question that he got fired. Question is why?

maybe it was the complete and utter failure of the new warranty program/12 point promise.

I found something else interesting in Emahiser departing. The Redwood web site now only shows Redwood and Elevation where prior to him leaving it also had "coming soon" with Carriage listed. Now Carriage is no longer listed on the web site. Looks like there might be even more to this story....

Maybe he got let go because of the problems their haveing with the Rushmore line for one. I would like to know what happened to the guy who's landing gear collapsed, he either fell off the planet or got hushed up

Tommy, he got a new Rushmore out of the deal and was probably told not to give out any details in the process.

Glad to hear that, I lost track of that thread and often wondered what the outcome was. The frame on that Rushmore had to be badly damaged. Too bad the cause isn't common knowledge so other owners know what to look for on their rigs.

More interesting news. Looks like according to the Redwood web site that Crossroads has lost the Rushmore and it now will be built under the Redwood name. Is this because Crossroads cannot build it without all the quality issues? So that means the Cruiser is now Crossroads top of the line? Whats next?

It might be a good idea for Redwood but what does it do to Crossroads? They have pulled the Elevation and now the Rushmore out and put them under the Redwood line. I guess Crossroads will now become their "entry level" line.

Yeah taking Rushmore from the Crossroads line doesn't give me a warm and fussie feeling. Somehow I don't see how this can be a good thing for CR
