Shorter 5th Wheels

After 3 years with a 28' TT for week long vacations, my wife and I are looking at a shorter 5th wheel for an upcoming 12-18 month road trip around the country. We would like to keep the trailer under 32' so we can fit into state and national park campgrounds. So far our short list the Arctic Fox 27 5L, Arctic Fox 28 5C, and the Glacier Peak F26 RKS. With the other brands we have looked at (Cougar, Montana) it appears that their shortest models start in the 35' range and go up to 41'. We are looking for a well-constructed unit (no "lite" models). Will be purchasing a 1 ton diesel/single rear wheel for towing. Any recommendations for brands and models that would meet our criteria?

Grand Design Reflection 303RLS. 33 feet long. One foot longer than you wanted but very nice rear living plan with opposing slides, TV directly across from 2 recliners, spacious pantry, nice appliances in 2018 models. Always gagged at fireplaces, but our first trip was in March and we went north. Used the fireplace and to my surprise, it put out enough heat to be comfortable without using the furnace during the day - or to break the chill in the morning.

2nd trip was to a Fl. state park - fit the site perfectly with room to spare.
