What Fifth Wheel do you own? Base on what you know today, would you recommend it to your best friend? If you were to buy a new one, what brand and model?

Thanks

2018 Fuzion 427. Two trips so far and we love it. Currently at the dealer for minor warranty issues. This is our second Fuzion so yes I'd recommend them.

2017 Keystone Impact 351. I'd recommend it and the other models in this line (neighbor just bought a 361 after conferring with us). No camper is perfect, even brand new, but overall the only bigger issue we had was on our 2nd trip with it, the front AC stopped working and it's always a big long ordeal to get something like that replaced, because the dealer has to contact Keystone, then Keystone has to contact the manufacturer of the AC, and then decide if they're going to cover it, etc etc. But that will happen with any camper that has an issue like that.

We have also enlisted a mobile tech to just come to the house. The dealer we bought from is fine (and our purchase experience there was great), but they're just so backed up so even minor repairs take weeks and they're about a 25 minute drive away, it ends up just being easier for us to pay the mobile guy to do it when it comes to the little stuff that's a bit too hard to do with our skill set, but also isn't related to a major component. Like, when we had him come out to winterize it for us, we also had him repair the rubber flashing that's up by the roof that we think got caught on a tree so it was a bit messed up. We could attempt that ourselves but really, we're not super handy beyond the basics so it was easier to just have him do it while he was there. And again, that's an issue that could happen to anybody on any camper.

I can't think of anything else we'd buy (unless we decided to go smaller again), other than a Grand Design. We considered those the first time around as well, but we don't use it enough to justify the extra cost.

We love our Crossroads Elevation. I don't think they make them anymore, but maybe they'll spin up their production again someday.

It's a very comfortable home away from home. We've had it for three years now and still love it.

It took our moron dealers service center (Giant RV) 20 months to work through all of our warranty issues. We actually had better luck when we just hired a mobile tech to come out and spend a day working on the remaining items.

Voltage 3950. It had teething problems but, yes, I'd recommend it.
