2013 Prime Time Crusader reviews

Well where to start after about 1 year the nose cap started to crack all around where the screw are to hold it on. Contact Rick who handles warranty after a good long talk he said that Prime Time would pay half this is cause it was passed the warranty period time (this what all manufactures have it’s called AWA after warranty assistance) but I would have to paid for it up front. This was in spring 2015 so cap ordered trailer when in cost was $5600.00 cad. So I call this Rick and told him it was fitted and the cost then he said he did say that Prime Time would paid anything towards the repair. It took several call to Rick before he finally said they would paid and that did $1960.00 us if I remember right which end up being about 60-40 split me being the 60 but the repair/dealership was great repair done perfect no more cracking around the screws. Next it was the plumbing connectors leaking and no winterizing kit installed. So I repaired the plumbing install winterizing kit snd replaced the shower head ( this one I did to save water and increase water pressure). Now the electrical had to replace several connectors and also replace wiring with a 4 gauge welding cable with proper connects made a proper ground and installed a battery disconnect. Now the battery charges properly. Now the China bombs have only 12000 km these and had to replace them. The fenders were all cracking around all the screw they replace them. I reinforced behind the fenders. Now the good points with the good tires this trailer pulls like a dream. The bedroom area is a good size easy to get around. Living area is a good size dining area is just ok a little as am 6’4” so it’s going to be tight lol. Kitchen area work really well. Over all I do like this trailer but they do need to step up the quality but all trailer manufacturers have the same problems. The trailers are build as cheap as possible to get maximum profit. So all in all if anyone can find a perfect trailer at a reasonable price that we don’t have to fix I think we would all buy one. Now the last word I have finally got my trailer to a point where I can enjoy it now with pulling out the tools to fix things. Also remember that all manufacturers have AWA so don’t take no or answer cause they can help you out in a reasonable time frame from new purchase. Show less

Bought our Prime Time Crusader 295RST 32 footer used after checking overall ratings online. Crusader came in the top 10 out of 6-700 similar 5th wheels. Easy to pull and a pleasure to live in and show off. Kept the 295RST for 3 seasons and bought another used bigger brother 2014 Crusader 320RLT 36 footer for more room for extended wintering. The new 5th has all the usual "glamping" amenities as the 295RST. Primetime Crusader are a step above your typical 5th wheeler Show less

I wrote a review not to long ago. The saga continues with problems with this Touring Crusader. We have been in NC to visit my husband's son on oir return from Florida. We stay right on his property . We have water and electric hookup. Took the 5th wheel today to dump the tanks and the long aluminum stem that is hooked to the grey tank for the bathroom broke off so the tank didn't get emptied at dealership. Brought it back to his sons and is fixing it. He said it broke because od the fresh water tank was sitting on it and should have been fastened up so it didn't sit on the valve stem. I asked him if it was a design flaw and he said it was just poor workmanship. Thank goodness he knows how to fix stuff, but maybe if he didn't we would be rid of this 5th wheel. Prime Time division of Forest River, you should be ashamed of yourselves for allowing this 5th wheel to leave yourfactory. All I can say is Buyer Beware. Show less

We traded a V Cross 32 ft. for this 5th wheel.We like it well so far.I bought the extended waranty with this. We have had a problem with the hot water tank and they took care of it promptly.We like the floor plan well.We are living in it in Mrytle Beach.We go back and forth to W Va. I have never towed this . If I have to leave it for an extended time I will store it. Campers Inn Mrytle Beach was our dealer and Dennis was the salesman.He did an outstanding job to demonstrate everything.They are nice people to deal with. Your RV gets a 5 star so far.

I have had great luck with this Rv. We have been all over the south and even into Canada! We did experience a fading front decal but warranty took care of it. The outside attached grill is great. The aluminum bonded construction makes for great surfaces. Show less
