Cardinal / Wildcat
For 2024, the Cardinal/Wildcat fifth wheel line is expanding with half-ton solutions. Sister products, the Cardinal RED and Wildcat ONE fifth wheels, launched in 2022 with four models and quickly gained in popularity, the company says. The new 2024 options focus on the growing half-ton market and offer versatility, nimble handling and easy towing.
Now the Cardinal RED and Wildcat ONE will be offered in an all-new, 36-foot-plus model. There is also expansion under the 30-foot towable category. “With 3/4-ton and 1-ton trucks increasing in price with limited availability, more consumers with 1/2-ton trucks are looking for towable fifth wheel options,” the company says. “New Cardinal and Wildcat fifth wheels meet this demand, with versatile models built specifically to deliver nimble handling and easy towing.”
Salem Hemisphere / Wildwood Heritage Glen
The Salem Hemisphere and Wildwood Heritage Glen travel trailers (excluding fifth wheels) for 2024 will feature a one-piece fiberglass roof, which the company says is a “major innovation.” One of the first travel trailers on the market to include this full wraparound fiberglass roof, other updates include framed square windows from LCI with built-in shades and a reflective foil backing.
