looking for "short" (<37ft) 5th w/ opposing couches
hey again you wonderful family!
Well, we're enjoying our new "horse" (2018 ram 3500) .... things are settling down and we're starting to look for 5th wheels again. While we originally thought we'd be looking for a bunkhouse for the kids, they surprised us and all agreed they'd rather have more congregational space than a bunkhouse. whaaaaaaa?!?! ;)
TL;DR:
------
We're looking for a used 5th wheel that is UNDER 38' (32'-36' would be GREAT) that has a living area with opposing slides, each with flip-out couch. Great entertaining/living space, while still sleeping 4 (2x per couch) in the living room. Any recommendations on older-model units that might fit that bill?
Back-story:
------------
We walked through a couple newer 5th's on the lot that had a living room (front or rear, doesn't matter) with two opposing flip out couches -- tons of space to hang out with friends and families, and two flip outs that sleep 2 each. Wow!
However, we've also noticed that those with these dual-slide facing couches are typically 38' to 42' tip-to-tail, and we'd REALLY love to stay UNDER 37/38 feet tip-to-tail.
Since this is a new style of floorplan than what we've been looking for, I'm starting from scratch (all the previous research I'd done was on bunkhouses)...
Any ideas of brands/models to look at would be greatly appreciated!
cheers,
