Location: Oak Harbor, WA | Hi all! We are selling our exiss xt300 event for a 3H LQ rig. May have it narrowed down to a 2004 Bloomer 12ft SW with mid tack and a nice Duster conversion....and a 2008 Sooner...similar setup but no mid tack and 11ft SW, also with a Duster conversion. Bloomer is 46,500 and the Sooner is going to be about $8K more.
I have seen the Bloomer and other than needing a good washing in the horse area (floors look fine) and the outside, everything seems to work. I would need to get the gen set and AC service just because I doubt they were done.
The sooner I have not seen in person.
What are the prevailing thoughts???
Thanks! Have a great day.

Location: Topeka Ks | IMO... I would say the Bloomer, plus it has the mid tack and you have seen it in person. I have a Duster conversion in my Sterling Coach and it is very good quality, however they are not in business today. Originally written by blah blah blah on 2015-05-26 12:32 PM

Location: South Central OK | My gut asks why the Bloomer is cheaper, it wasn't cheaper to start with... If everything being equal with structural soundness, etc I'd rather take the Bloomer every day of the week and twice on Sundays. |

Location: Oak Harbor, WA | I think the Sooner may be in better cosmetic condition outside, it is 4 years newer and has an enclosed area with diamond plate for the spare, batteries and propane tanks.
Thanks!
