Hello all. Just found this forum and am very excited. Was a noobie on some other "RV.xxx" forum and was looking for one more geared toward my particular TT and lucky me I found you all!
Just recently got a 2015 Crossroads Longhorn 31SB. Its a 35' bunk house TT that will hopefully suite my large family for a while to come. This is our first RV of any kind so I am very wet behind the ears. We started our search little over a year ago. Originally we were looking at popups and somehow progressed to searching for a large TT. I do have a lifetime of "Tent" camping experience and my wife was a real trooper but "ruffing it" just was not her preferred way. So I get to spend time out doors and she gets to sleep with out a rock in her back and use the bathroom with out tree bark up her butt.
About me. Have my wife of almost four years. Two daughters, 19 and 3 years old, identical twin boys who just turned 2. I am a fire Lieutenant, hobbies include wood working, cigars, and obviously camping. I will have lots of questions and not very much advise.
Speaking of asking questions here is my first of many.
What trailer should I say I have???
I know what the sticker on the side and all the paperwork I signed says but here is the deal. The "Longhorn" is a "special edition" made by Crossroads for a dealer here in Texas that has five or six locations across the state. It is essentially a Zinger. (as far as I can tell) For simplicity of this forum do I just treat it as a Zinger and do I belong in the Zinger forum? Will all the Zinger folks accept me as one of their own or will I forever be a red headed step child on this forum as a whole with really no place to call home?
Thanks for taking the time to allow me to introduce my self and for reading this. Take care.
Robert

If I were you I would ask most but not all your technical questions on the Zinger thread. That is where other campers and you will have the most in common as far as your rigs are concerned...But there is also a lot of information on the other threads as well...
