Tiffen Fifth wheel Vilano

[skyl8dy]

Tiffen has entered the Fifth Wheel market and we cant say enough about the quality of it! Honestly, we feel like it is a condo on wheels.....thank you Tiffen family for giving us this luxurious motorhome!

The unit looks great; however, I would not purchase one from the dealership in So. CA due to bad reviews on service repairs and customer service. All manufacturers have some type of repairs needed at one time or another on their units and if repairs and customer service are bad you don't enjoy your RV. Again I did like the models.

First they cry it can’t do what they want and when they find it it can they cry about the cost.

A revised floor plan is no longer needed so your point is moot.

I'd like to know if that $3,600 gets you more than just the 8k axles. You could likely buy a set of 8k axles and have them installed yourself, then sell off the 7k axles, and you'd be in for a =whole= lot less than $3,600, IMO.

That price also includes "H" rated tires as well.

Robin - why are you looking to replace your Solitude? We’re trying to get the trigger pulled on a VL 320 and looking at similar GD too...

I was in need of a half bath on the lower level when I was looking to replace the Solitude. That need has dissipated so I will not be replacing my Solitude. Of the fourteen RVs that I have owned over the years the Solitude has been the most reliable and most trouble free of any previous unit. The Vilano is really well made but all of the solid wood cabinetry, in my opinion, is a lot of bling that sucks up a huge amount of CCC. Nothing wrong with that but as a full timer if I was going to go with a Vilano I would definitely go with the 8000# axles.

What does your lux MH have to do with 5th wheel trailers or am I on the wrong forum

Look at the title of this thread. They just used the wrong term for their trailer.

Yes the customer service worked out well. It took a little longer than I thought but they did have their first rally.

[MNRon]

CarolynandBob- good luck with your issue. Have you checked out the VL FB page? You might also find something me help there.

Keep us posted

[CarolynandBob]

Still waiting to hear from Vanleigh. It has been a week, but they are having their first rally this weekend.

We will see about their "after purchase customer service".

[MNRon]

Yes, we visited the factory a few weeks ago. Very nice people. Also can’t say enough good about what I’ve read about their ‘after purchase’ customer service.

BTW - what about the teaser you posted earlier?

[CarolynandBob]

It is good that you are in Tennessee. You will be able to take it to the Service center that does Vanleigh's warranty work. They are in Tishimingo,MS.

Comes with G rated Westlakes. Would prefer they were Sailuns (have on current rig) but lots of digging didn’t turn up any bad on Westlake *G* tires so I’ll run them with TPMS and see how they do. If one wants VL offers either GY 614 upgrades or 8k axle/H rated tire upgrades.

Just put money down today on a 2019 VL 320. Final cut came down to GD Solitude, Montana, and VL. Cabinetry, and other items (including customer service and satisfaction) kept pulling us back to VL. Spec’d out as we wanted, now just beginning the long wait to get it built...

What tires come on it? I assume one of the all steel LRG offerings. GY G614, Sailun or Westlake?
