Hi everyone. I have been searching for months for the perfect floorplan for our family that includes at least 3 bunks, a slide, u dinette and a full size walk around queen. The problem is I am trying to keep the size under 30' (would prefer to be under 28') and as light as possible for our 1/2 ton truck. I stumbled across the spree 240 which is literally the perfect fit for our family. The problem is they seem very difficult to find. They stopped making the floor plan and when searching sites I can find only one...ONE of them for sale across the entire US! I would love a 2015 or later model and have only found a 2014. Does anyone own this model? Any tips on where I could look besides the major trailer for sale pages to find one? I know sometimes you get different manufactures making the same floorplan. Anyone happen to know of any other trailers with similar floorplan. Really wish they still made this model!  |

Yea the 2017 is not the right model. Looks like a 250 that was put incorrectly in as a 240

Is there a way to search all of craigslist? I can only search by state (sometimes by region in the state) so trying to find what I want is difficult

The CO would be perfect, I just have to drive 30hrs to look at it.....grrrr Fly to Denver and rent a car. Cheaper than making an $18k mistake! Plus, the drive is gorgeous. Just looked, and found several RT flights from LGA to DEN for < $200, base cost. You could also have it delivered if you make a deal on it. I looked at this when I was shopping out of state, and bids for a +/- 31' FW ranged from $2.50/mile down to about $1.80. A TT might be less since a smaller truck could be used. Alternative would be to fly out and rent a truck for the return trip, if you buy it. Lyle |

If you've got the resources on your computer, you can open =every= major city listing at once and just close out each tab as you go through them. You =can= also use filters so if you're looking for something somewhat common, but you keep getting false hits (like Ford or RAM when you're looking for GMC), you can put -Ford -RAM -Tacoma, etc. to help weed out the junk. I used it for several years when I was shopping for a specific KZ model. Same with looking for a specific truck. Searchtempest will also pick up Canadian and Mexican CL listings as well as evil-bay and, occasionally, amazon. Lyle |

So using that searchtempest site I found the joey nomad 250 is similar but doesn't have any counter space. Again, not an easy model to find. I would think people would prefer the staggered bunks over the triple bunks stacked!

You can also use google. Simply enter the make and model you're looking for, then add site:craigslist.org . Little more rudimentary.
