Rear Living Room with only 2 slides?
I am hoping some of you 5er guys can help us out. We presently have a Outboack 277RL Trailer, and love the layout, but would like more storage space now that we snowbird for a couple months at a time...

I know you said you were looking for a 5er with only 1 slide in rear with a window, but have you considered the Outback 298RE - TT. It does have 2 slides in the rear living room, but it's got windows all around. The television can be lowered into the cabinet so there is no obstruction to the rear window. And with windows in both slides, lots of living space, and the panoramic view from all 3 sides of the rear living room, it's fabulous!
We even removed the stand alone kitchen table, chairs, and 2 rocker chairs and replaced with a real household recliner couch. We can turn it cross ways in the living room, facing the rear, and have a spectacular view 24x7!
The bed room also has a wall closet slide, which we have yet to fill up, and 2 closets on both sides of the bed. It does have cabinets all over, which some of ours are still empty. Inside storage is great.
There is only 1 outside pass-through in the front, but it's pretty large. We use the construction topper shell with side shelves on the truck to carry hardware items, and of course the bed of the truck to carry the blue tote, firewood, and such.
I know you're looking at 5er's, but it would be well worth your time to look at the Outback 298RE. It is perfect for 2, camping for extended times. The short couch is a sleeper, with a blow up mattress. My 30 year old son and 3 year old grand son use it sometimes. Here's some photos, not the best, but hopefully will give you an idea:
