We have a Voltage 3200 which is great. the quality is good and so far just minor issues to repair. Compared to other issues people here and other sites post I feel lucky we got the voltage. I think they make a 2900 series also. I do not think they make anything smaller.

I don't think he said fifth wheel...I think he said toy hauler...?

My 5th wheeler is a toy hauler.

That's great for you, but you said they don't make a TOY HAULER shorter than that...which isn't true. There are MUCH shorter TOY HAULERS out there.

Another vote for the Northwoods Desert Fox series 28KS/29' model they just brought out.

Tia,

How about a airstream panamerica toyhauler. I am dealing on a 09 right now looks cool and I hope will last. I race mx and can not wait till I pull up in the pits with this unit. They will think space shuttle is landing in the pits.

I had a 21SW for about 7 years. Sold it because I downsized to an Arctic Fox truck camper. (also made my Northwood)

Another vote for Desert Fox. We had a 28KS and when it was time to upgrade to a fifth wheel we bought their 38-5U. I have been very happy with both trailers and the support from the Northwood folks.

We have a 40' Jayco Recon ZX The build quality on our unit has been beyond our expectations. We are also camping off-road on uneven ground. The rig has held tight inside and out. We camp all 4 seasons and it is insulated fairly well considering it's ceiling height and overall size. A lot of well thought out features for a 2008 unit.

A fellow club member has a Stellar and it is very nicely built. If I were to buy another TH I'd really look at these. When I bought mine Attitude was pretty new and their build quality was not up to par but they seem to have come a long way. Also a LOT to be said about a local factory, my Ragen' went back two or three times for warranty and they found/fixed twice what it went in there for

Look at the Jayco Octane models. Competitively priced and Jayco stands behind their product/warranty. I had warranty work done and had no issues from start ti finish. My dealer was also top notch, too (Forrest Marine and RV, Tyngsborough, MA). Had mine 5 years and it is still going strong.

I called the factory to get my answer. They said there is no difference except for colors inside and out. No build or structure or material difference. I bet the salesmen on the lots will have a different story, LOL.

That'a what I thought. And your probably right about the salesmen. When we were looking at them back in 2006 they had really ugly interior and exterior colors but they came with a more complete package than most of the others and the fuel station was on the opposite side of our WW's. It's the right side as far as I'm concerned. MDW would not go for it just because of the interior and exterior looks. Plus they were heavier back then (and I think now also) to. Especially their 28' 5th wheel we were looking at. I really like their new floor plan on the 28 now. Refer location with TV above and you have full bathroom with the sink it now. Plus the way that's layed out it gives more privacy in the front bedroom. If I were in the market now I would be looking at them.

I have also read a bunch of good things on here about the Artic Fox to. Seems really well built and worth a look. Don't know if they make 5th wheel toy hauler though.
