I've just gotten some pictures of the first 2009 Phaeton to roll off the line. For those of you who are chomping at the bit to see what's going on in 2009, I've posted them to a webpage at www.rvcruzer.com/2009_Phaeton.htm, along with a link to a text page of the changes made in 2009 as well as current pricing.

I'll continue to update it as more info comes my way.

Thanks for the research... I just got my 2008 Phaeton, and wondered if I should have waited. A few things I do like about the 09, like the shower, but for the most part, I'll just keep paying for my 08 and enjoy... thanks again.

I just got hold of a few more and added 20 more pictures to the webpage.

Any new floorplans for the 09 Phaeton?

Looks nice. I have an 08 40QDH. I REALLY like the redistribution of the weight. When we were weighed at the Life on Wheels conference, they commented that the weight distribution on the Phaetons has not been great in the past. Not sure I like the refer in the slide. And not sure I would like the new shades, but I will reserve comment for later to see how many strings we break
