Potential CF345BH owners

Hi everyone! My husband and I have been shopping around for a fifth wheel bunkhouse a couple months now. We have been to a few different dealers, walked through a lot of RVs and scoured the internet every day it seems like lol We are absolutely in LOVE with this CF345BH floor plan! We are a military family, with 2 small kids and a dog. We're planning on using our RV semi-full time; while my husband is TDY in schools, when we PCS to a new area while transitioning, while visiting inlaws and just regular vacationing
We recently discovered this floor plan and so far it doesn't seem to be very common unfortunately. Do most Crossroad owners order their RV? We would of course like to see this in person before ordering. We are also open to used but there were none on Craigslist, RV Trader or the classifieds in here There are 3 Crossroads dealers within 200 miles, and we do not mind traveling, but only one of those shows a Cruiser and it was a 2015. Searching this forum I haven't seen any CF345BH owners post Anyway, happy to see there is a Crossroads community and to hopefully be owners very soon!

I believe Newby's RV in McMinnville, TN has one of these on the lot. McMinnville is about an hour NNW of Chattanooga. The Newby's are two middle aged brothers and their dad and you will deal with them directly if you go there. Honest, Christian people who do business the right way. I bought mine there and will give them a chance on my next one, too.

Thanks Mike. Looks like Newby's does have a 2015 but that's about 7 hours from us here in Savannah, Ga. There is a 2015 in SC about 3 hours from us as well. Really hoping to find a 2013 or 2014 to keep the cost down so we'll see!

We have a 305SK 2013, but seem to recall there was a bunkhouse model in 2013 called the 355BH, Maybe the model number was changed for 2015. The 315RL is now virtually the same as our 305SK, and there is a new floorplan called 305RS that is totally different than ours. You may find a 2013 or 2014 model with the floorplan you're looking for, just under a different model number.

We have the first model of that which was the CF32BL except for me and a tire it has been trouble free production on it stopped, and than brought it back out as a 355BH and than this year as a 345BH, I have seen it and was impressed with the design

Like Frank I too have a 09 CF32BL and really like it. We bought it used back in 2011 and have had very little problems with it and the problems we did have CR came through for us. I remember looking at the 355BH a couple years ago at the factory rally and really liked it. Welcome to the forum and good luck with your shopping.

We will try to look around for an older model under those names, thanks guys! We are on the way home from the dealer right now (3hrs away). We LOVED it in person... Just a little hesitant to pull the trigger for the price... We left a small deposit and are running some numbers ourself and sleeping on it. This will be our biggest purchase ever so we just want to be careful.... Ahhhh so exciting/nerve wrecking! Lol I wish the pricing for stuff was just more straight forward! We still have to find a truck too.

2013 Cruiser 335BL

Here is a link to a used 2013 Cruiser 335BL, that is the floor plan you are looking for. I just happened to stumble across this 5th wheel when I was looking for my parents. This 5th wheel is super clean and is located about an hour east of Dallas. I know its pretty far from you but if the price is right its worth it. I have know idea what they go for new.

That one is nice! I actually like the black countertops and iblack inside glass better than the '15 I don't think we can swing the 14 hour trip with 2 kids though I know we're not supposed to talk price specifics on here but the one we got yesterday wasn't much more than this one is listed so maybe we are doing ok... Thanks for sharing, Ken!

345BH is a new model for this year so it wil be hard to find a used one. As others said if you are looking used you may need to look at some of the previous model numbers.

I love Savannah, Ga. Beautiful city. We are thinking of vacationing at Tybee this year. Haven't been down that way since 2010 or so. Good luck finding the perfect one for you!

Found a 2014 355bl in IL at a Camping World... It says 345bl on the side though?? Emailed them to see what the deal is with transferring it to my local Camping World... Any opinions on this? I have gotten mixed reviews on Camping World in General.

My husband got a 2008 F250 diesel and we have the financing finished for our 345BH. We ended up finding one in Alabama for about 5,000 less than the other, with a lifetime warranty on everything! They are putting slide toppers on and we should be picking it up next week!! Thank you guys for the help and I'm sure we will be posting a again soon

Amazing the price swings we found when shopping around. As long as the dealer backs up the sale with good service afterwards, I say shop the best price.

Life time warranty on everything? Truck or camper? Sounds to good but hope so. Congrats.

On the Camper, and everything in it, nationwide....I agree, it does sound too good to be true but my husband said it checks out... We will find out for sure I guess when we go to pick it up Memorial Day weekend! lol They pulled it off the line to start getting everything ready but it is still listed on their website for now.
