Thank you all for the excellent replies. Keep them coming.
I have considered the DRV, but am not certain what makes a "Full time" coach over a non-full time coach. I believe that the Arctic Fox has a 6 point electric auto-leveling system called the Ground Control system not the hydraulic Level up. Not sure which, if either, is better than the other. I have heard that Arctic Fox trailers are very high quality, but there is only one dealer in PA and they don't have any 5th wheels to look at. The sale person agreed to contact me when they receive a 5th wheel for me to look over.
Would the Arctic Fox be closer to the DRV in quality vs the Big Sky?
Does the Big Sky have good quality, and am I just being too critical?
I guess that I can be a demanding person;).
As memory serves Northwoods has both a four-point and six-point (options)
If you go with Northwoods it sounds like it would be a factory order, please consider the following options:
A thermostatically controlled Fantastic Fan
The Direct-Response power-awning vrs the basic Travel-R (the DR can be set to auto retract in high winds)
Thermopane windows (they -ARE- optional, but about 99% are ordered that way)
5th Airborne hitch
Solar panel (assuming you camp at more primitive campgrounds)
