Quality Travel Trailer

For quality builds, Artic Fox/Nash, Outdoors Rv and Lance. There are still some minor issues but you won't see major things like axles, cheap/weak frames, roof and slide leaks. Solid walls, well insulated and quality built cabinets, etc.

If they could sell something like that for a 30-40% premium over the junk on the market, I predict they would sell very well.

But when I can buy 4 or 5 of my trailers for what one Airstream goes for, it's just not practical $$ for a "toy" in my family.

*Edit: just went and looked at Airstreams, I could buy more like 6 to 7 of my trailers for a similar sized Airstream.

For $100K one would hope! :R

If you really want a quality travel trailer, try Lance. Look on youtube for Lance construction and you'll see what I mean.

They made some slide versions in the early 2000s if you can stand used.
Still not a very spacious design.

Yep. And if you want a slide you are out of luck.

Not slamming them, they look super nice. But out of my price range....and I really like the floorspace you gain for a slideout. Not sure I can go back. :)

You mention 5th wheel amenities and finish. The Grand Design Reflection line fits that. I recently looked at the 285bhts and it seemed like a 5th wheel layout in a travel trailer. Nicer finishes. Claim to be four season with upgraded insulation. I don’t own one but have heard relatively good reviews.

X2 I own a 2018 Reflection Fifth Wheel, and am very satisfied with it. Its not junk, has great fit and finish, and materials used are very nice compared to others I looked at before purchase. Grand Design also has a Reflection TT line that, as e-man states, has basically the same layouts. They also have a less expensive TT line called Imagine.

If you can, attend an RV show where you can tour multiple manufacturers lineups.

Here are a few useful links

Good luck
