Absolutely not (at least so far). Many people get on the net to complain. I do periodically as well. But people don't get on the net as much to provide good news (at least I don't).



So here you go...



No regrets on my purchase! Love it. Bought tire covers for all 4 plus spare. Had issue w/ awning (user error) - unscrewed black caps to far but put back on. Crossroads put Fresh Tank and City Water labels on wrong. They sent me new stickers and I fixed it (you should have seen me trying to fill the fresh water tank - that would have been a good You Tube flick).



Great camper, storage, bunks for kids, sink, etc. etc.



Wish I was there now!



My wish list...

Bathroom toilet area was bigger.

Steps outside would fold up easier. Put oil on but still hard. Any tips?

Button to do automatic wash and wax on outside.



This is a great forum and manypeople help address my q's/issues which are mostly user issues (this is my first TT).

Glad to hear you are enjoying your unit. Most issues are minor and run across all manufacturers. Unfortunately you often only hear the negatives in these forums because a lot of people don't come here to get more information and ideas and to share successes. The only reason I am a member of any forum is to get help and help others if possible. I'm here mainly to gain knowledge!! You can usually spot the negative ones easily because they don't contribute anything positive to the community - ever.

Happy travels!!

My automatic wash and wax button went to University and that button has been broken for four years already!!Edited by: WildWildWest

I love my Zinger too. It has been a very faithful and reliable unit despite all the newbie errors my DH and I have made. I had a couple small issues that were taken care of under warranty. Nothing major. I can't say anything bad about it except now we want a rear entertainment 5er when we can afford to make the jump. Until then we will continue to enjoy our happy functioning trailer.Now for my next mod, installing the insta wash n wax button.

Fellow Zingers, we love our Zingy also. Of course, we have made a few mods and a few mistakes but it was great for the extended journey that we took from 6/24-7/21. It has great storage for us. When I get a chance I will post some of the mods that we made.

Our only big issue was the screws pulling out of the door on the outdoor kitchen rendering it useless but CR repaired it when we were in Indiana for the rally.

Sorry to say but the "insta wash n wax button" is out of stock or no longer available. </span>

My steps were hard to open and close until I tried a garage door lube spray. Did the trick

It's a silicone based spray that's suppose to dry and not collect dirt. You can get it at home improvement or auto stores. I think the lithium grease won't penetrate deep enough into the pivot points .

Glad you like it.
We just traded our 2012 Zinger on a 2014 Zinger 32QB and are looking forward to the added space!

Did you mount a TV yet? Size or bracket suggestions?
