Front living room

The wife and I were looking at the new 5th wheels at an RV show the other day and really liked a couple we saw with the living room in the front. We are thinking of upgrading from our TT and going full time and this floor plan was particularly inviting. Impressions and various makes and models would be appreciated.

  • I've looked at FL models, but would miss having windows on three sides as in our living room.
  • JMO but if I ever get a FL 5'er it would have to have the seating directly across from the tv. I couldn't see dropping big $$$$$ for a FL and have to turn my head to watch tv. That would be my 1st need. 2nd would be that the kitchen area be useable. Good entry and adequate dinette area.
    #1 choice would be a Grand Design Solitude 379FL
  • Cedar Creek 38FL shows a interior height of 6'9".

    One of the pluses to a 5er is the tall Living Room ceiling, with Fan. With the forward Living room you have limited head room, as every inch adds to the overall height on the rig.

    You also loose the 8' wide closet found across the front of all but the smaller "Lite" 5er's
