VanLeigh Fifth Wheels

Sadly, it looks like the previous thread on VanLeigh fifth wheels went missing.

I know that some of have been waiting to see them, so here is a link:

VanLeigh Link

Need I mention that I am NOT an agent or employee of VanLeigh or any RV dealership nor anyone else?

Thanks for letting me know. This one should work (at least for now):

VanLeigh Link Re-Do

Nice looking 5th Looks like a rip off of My buddies Grand Designs Solitude inside to a TEE(not that is bad I like his) ,but with that price I gotta have a rear cap like was said before and a nicer bedroom and what's with everybody using Cheap TV/ Surround Jensen,Furrion Garbage, is Montana the only one anymore that has the good stuff??? my last two Montana's have had Sony or Samsung home theatre 5.1 that Sounds Fantastic ,those disposable Jensen and Furrion units look and sound like they are car stereo's from the 90's

Which Solitude model is it?

I was going to look at the VanLeigh again and compare it to the GD Solitude, but it looks like the link is dead.

EDIT: VanLeigh.

(Not meant as an endorsement for that dealership, btw.)

That Vilano 365RL looks exactly like a Grand Design Solitude, right down to the exact same nose cap, same Closet. Looks like it came out of the Grand Design factory.

easy enough and cheap to change out. I changed mine out to a Watts clear with bypass valve for about $40 I think. Had to change the bracket because of the top valve. Takes the same filter

Watts Filter

Thanks for the recommendation. I might look into changing mine out.

Nice! I really like the wood valences (sp) and the way the windows are trimmed out in your photo. (I really dislike the cloth trim on ours).

The wooden tabletop and shelf top instead of the usual composite/quartz/granite/whatever else is used looks good, too.

The chair that backs to the window looks like it's a little "squeezy" space-wise. 😉

We were able to get the "OLD" Elite package minus the radiused top raised panel doors. Yes in the photo the space looks small but it's actually 21" from top to the wall.

Nice that the put a closure on the "hole" in the floor, too. I forgot to block mine and had mice in there this summer. My bad.

We were just discussing filters on another thread. Wish they had used a clear canister so you can see how dirty the filter is getting.

Love the water filter location they chose

Dark is the trend now for sure! Even with the color we have we added lots of extra lights.

VanLeigh article says MSRP on the Vilano is $80K. (In case anyone else was wondering.)

I HATE VESSLE SINKS!.

Pardon my off-topic-ness, but is there a problem with vessel sinks? We're thinking of putting one in the S/B bathroom. Any reason no to?

We like ours, it makes for more counter space.

We had one in a Big Country and really liked it! More counter space and no bumping head on the cabinet when brushing teeth etc.

Tried one once in a room in Vegas. After using sinks for near 70 years I can't get use to using a big salad bowl sitting on the counter to do my bathroom needs. Look like they might make a fine urinal if you had a step stool. A passing fancy.
