Advice needed on new 5er
My wife and I are in a stand off on picking new 5er. We currently have a 29TT with BH.
I want a RL or FL 35-39' with 4-5 slides. She wants a BH 35-41'. Our daughters are 18 and 21 and usually bring a friend when we camp (lake). I reluctantly agreed to a BH on the condition we get nothing over 39', outside cooking, ceiling fan and a kitchen slide out. She wants a lot of storage in kitchen, place for towels in bathroom and an island.
We have spent days looking, all over DFW. We really liked the:
Silverado 36TB with Stainless Appliances, double refrigerator.
Sierra 301OK (kinda basic, but has large pantry)
Open Range 367BHS with table in bunk area for our kids to play game.
Gateway 3650BH, has most everything we want, but looks over priced.
All of them have their good points, our favorite was the Open Range. It had everything we liked.... Open living area with the tables that can be removed, and the dinette/table in the rear. It has great storage but is missing a door for the bedroom between the step and the bed.
The Gateway was nice, but for the price it seems to be built on the cheap.
The Sierra was ok, but looks too basic for the price.
Silverado was nice too, but she'd rather have the storage as opposed to the 1/2 bath.
My question is, does anyone have any other ideas for us to consider? Or any experience with these models? If there were a bedroom door on the Open Range, we would have bought it. As you can see our price points vary depending on unit, we have a 2012 Ford F250 so TV is not a huge concern.
Thanks in advance for any input.
