Opinions??

Hey everyone, I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on a 5th wheel I found. The one I found is a 2008 fuzion 302.

Now, I haven't read a whole lot about the trailer but it has the layout I want in the size that's rite.

The deal here. That I want your opinion on is that I live in southern Cali and the trailer is being sold by camping world in Tallahassee Florida. They said they will take 33k shipped and out the door. What do you guys think??
  • Haha I'd be up for and adventure but , fortunately I'm really busy with work. My typical day is 3am to 8pm.
  • Just hope you have enough truck for it. They are nice, but loaded can be around 16k lbs.

    Tongue weight can be from 1200 to 2400 lbs too, depending on what you load.

    a 1 ton chevy ford, or dodge dually would be hard pressed in any model other then turbo diesals IMO..

    A 450 series would be my choice.

    But let the 5th wheel guys tell you.. You did not state what TV you have...
  • Buying a TT without seeing it in person? Sound to risky for my blood. Think I would be making a trip to Florida.
  • All things considered , what do you think is a fair number to offer?
  • Thanks for that info. I'll see if I can wiggle down the price. And you're correct on those dollar amounts.
  • So they are asking 28K for the trailer and will ship it for 5K.

    28K is high retail.....too high pricing especially for sight unseen purchase
    5K for shipping is about $2.15/mile....should be able to get it shipped for $1.75/mile or less.
