Looking at purchasing 2008 30sk. Really like layout. Are there any concerns I should be worried about? Since it is so light so I be concerned on the quality?
Thx Bill

I have the 2007 model and it has been great. Only issue we have had was the shock mounts needed to be worked on as the mount was hitting the tire. Common problem and is probably corrected on yours. Other than that we have been very happy. Tires wear well, slides work perfect every time and it has been very reliable. As you say, great floorplan.

We had a 2007 and now have a 2010. Both units were/have been great. No significant issues. Enjoy.

Bill -- We just got rid of our 2007 SK. We enjoyed it so much we traded it in on a 2013 SK. No problems with the 2007, and many good times. The 07 treated us very well. Good luck with yours if you decide to buy.

Thx for the responses. We purchased the 2008 Cruiser and just waiting to pick it up. We are from Canada but purchased the unit in Washington State. It turns out the unit was originally purchased in the States by a Canadian and then traded it in the States with the same dealership. Happy with the price and the unit.

The 2008 year units were a good vintage, way before the new slides and such. I rarely read about any major troubles back then. Mine was the same year and whole I had warranty issues none were of the magnitude I've been reading on here lately.
Enjoy your rig.

Wem 1950 --- Good luck with the 08. As said before they were a "GOOD VINTAGE", I know my 07 was a very good camper, no problems to speak of. I can only hope I have the same luck with my new 2013

Stan,
I recently purchased a 2007 29CK. I am new at this posting stuff, so forgive me; but what size and model do you have? I am interested in learning whatever I can about the 2007 29 CK.
Thanks,

Not much difference as I recall except the living area was "flipped". The SK (sliding Kitchen) has 3 slides and no peninsula sink are. My kitchen is on the drivers side where yours is on the passenger. Weights and capacities were pretty much the same. Main difference for us was the ability for easy access to the fridge with slides in and also the bathroom is one room vice two. Do a search for a used one online and you will probably find a floor plan for the 2007 model.

We got a 2007 30SK this year and we really like it, the downstairs layout is awesome with lots of room due to the back to back slides. We have had no problems what so ever in the short time we have had i. It towed great also, enjoy!

We have a 2007 Cruiser 30QB that we bought used in March of this year. Just got home from a weeklong camping trip to the Smoky Mountains. So far, we love it. No problems whatsoever. I am very pleased with the quality of this unit for a lightweight camper.

It's coming to the point that those of us who own the vintagemodels will have the bragging rights to who owns the coolest and best madecamper andtowing withour coolvintage trucks.
Back when "real" campers were made and easier to pay for!

It DOES seem like the "vintage" rigs and owners do have fewer complaints on this forum lately. Wonder why that is....HMMMMMM.

Stan,
How can you tell if the shock mounts would have been worked on? How can I tell if I need to have them worked on? I'm about to take a long trip and I would like to look in to this further.
