Need some advice on which 5th wheel units are "high end"?
Hi everyone,
We are in the process of selling our class A and would like to go to a 5th wheel unit.
It's not that we don't like the class A....we have just learned over the last eight years of owning it we don't utilize it enough to justify the cost....sits most of the time. It is a high end diesel 45' coach and we love the space, even lived in it full time for three years.
Our coach is quality built and we would like the same quality in the 5th wheel since we will be spending alot of time in it, and possibly living full time. We don't see ourselves moving but maybe every few months at the most. I only have a 3/4 ton diesel truck now but willing to upgrade to a 1 ton as needed for the trailer. I can use the larger truck in my work so it can be justified. (and actually we may look into getting/building a slide in truck camper as our travel unit)
Can you point me to manufacturers that would be considered quality units? I plan to look for something used....cost is important but it is not the driving factor. I like the 102" width, multiple slides, fiberglass roof if possible, 35'-45' range. I am willing to invest the time in learning and searching for the right trailer...just would like to narrow the search down. We did own a 2002 Keystone (approx 32' I think) once that was used as a camper for the kids when they came to visit but I am interested in something bigger and nicer for now.
Thanks for the help!
