open range travel trailers

I know some people who swear by them, and wouldn't buy anything else. I have to say, I have been nothing but impressed by Open Range. Their floor plans are unique, which I love. I don't see many TTs, mostly 5ers.

I can't speak to build quality, as I personally have never owned one. They will however be high on my list when I look to replace my current TT.

Check out the open range forum. There is many hours of reading there.

Toured the factory last month. They are now wholly owned by Jayco and this means Jayco exclusive dealers can now sell Open Range without losing their perks they get from Jayco. The tour was good and I liked their quality. Im looking to buy their 319rl light.

We bought an Open Range TT earlier this year, our first RV of any kind. So far it's been a great unit, and Open Range seems to include a lot of small details / upgrades over other units we looked at. We've spent around a month in ours so far and pulled it around 6k miles around the country.

I have had mine for two years, best RV I have owned and I have had many.

We had an Open Range fifth wheel for 4 years and was very pleased with it. We sold it and am no longer rving as we bought a place in Florida

We had one before we traded for our fiftth wheel. Great unit very well built. I was nervous trading it off because it had been trouble free, but our Grand Design has been trouble free as well.

My family has owned everything from TC, Hybrid, Class A, Class C, and now an Open Range TT. Based on my personal experience, it is the best RV we have owned and we have tried many different manufacturers. We have only had it for 1-1/2 years but so far the only problem was a bad propane regulator which OR quickly replaced. They do come with China bomb tires so we are already looking at replacing them. I'm a big guy (almost 400 lbs.) and I can comfortably use the bathroom including the shower. The trailer feels rock solid when I move around too (none of the others did). We chose a TT over a 5er simply because of fewer steps. We went to an OR owner's rally in Texas earlier this year so I got to see many different units. There were a couple who had problems of some type with their units but they were in the minority. BTW, I have no connection to OR other than being an owner.

We're picking up our OR Roamer RT288FLR Tuesday. We vacation in the heat of the summer, and have spent a couple years looking into a better insulated TT with 50 amp capability. Our new trailer will have two a/c units, both ducted. Since Outdoors RV and Arctic Fox don't sell trailers down here, the Roamer was the logical choice...especially since they have the floorplan and specs we want. I guess we will know after the two-year warranty period if it is as well-constructed as it seems.

Thanks speedo for the comments. I agree about the floor plans, particularly the island. Also want the true 4 season and understand they are considered similar to article in that respect. Would like to keep tongue to butt to be 30ft or less and no 5 er cause I need the bed for an Atv.
