What are the top 5 brands for 5W?

Well this ought to start a good argument er, discussion.

Montana is my choice

Open Range is Pretty-Dang-Good 5th wheel I'dd know, CUZ I GOT 1 :)
Keystones by THOR are good to.

I sure love my Jayco!

Montana's are the most popular by sales, I believe. Heartland products (Landmark, BigHorn, etc.) have good quality and dependability. You're never going to get a consensus on the "top five". You're just going to have to do your research and believe the data you deem believable.

at what price point ?

We kept our eyes open while camping. Take a drive through some local rv parks or state parks and if you see one you like, jot the name down. We found that the nicer more expensive top of the line units were never at the RV shows. The one we ended up with we had never seen before. The closest dealer for us that sold the unit was 250 miles away. We finally met a couple at Bryce National Park who had one and they gave us the tour and as a mechanical engineer, he told me why it was his choice. After looking at many,a year later we had one. Like I say, just keep your eyes open and search the internet. Like most on this forum, I am not a mechanical or structural engineer and don't get involved in brand wars. Best of luck in your search. We love every RV we have had.

I said it before. I will NEVER own another Heartland But have had decent success with the keystones. If you really want the truth the ones the average working stiff can afford are all junk.

I think price reflects Quality is close but size matters. If you get a 40 footer for 40k new you are probably not getting the best quality.

MONTANA FAMILY- Had a Montana 32' 2955RL for 7yrs with no issues and just bought a 2014 Montana Mountaineer 38'. Love it!!!

The Mountaineer came it at 11,500lbs. Pulling with 2006 Dodge Ram diesel shortbed with no problem. Technology is awesome regarding lighter Fivers!!!
