Palomino Columbus 320RS or Evergreen Bay Hill 320RS?

My wife really likes both of these fifth wheels. The floor plans are almost identical. I have no practical experience with either of these companies. I am after comments of the good/bad if you have real life experience with either company (or know someone who has). If you have specific comments on either of these units that would be even better. Thanks in advance.
  • For info on the Columbus go to the Forest River Forums ....."FROG" Forest River Owner Group
  • We've had our Columbus 320RS for a year and a half. We've been out dozens of times with it. The more time we spend in it, more we like it. Here are some of the features that helped up decide:
    1) Standard convection/microwave with an oven
    2) 30" X 60" shower is HUGE!
    3) Roof & floor have R30+ insulation, heated holding tanks, and heated basement.
    4) Leather theater seats are comfortable, especially when sitting in front of the 42" LED TV.
    5) 6 sided welded aluminum frame.
    6)Beauflor flooring throughout the living area
    7) Standard central vacuum system.
    It tows great with my RAM 2500 CTD, especially with the Roto Flex pinbox. The Columbus is the hottest selling fiver right now.
    They are really nice rigs. As mentioned, go to the Forest River Forums site: http://www.forestriverforums.com/forums/f96/
