Is the truck bed at 60" it must be lifted. if it is stock then there should not be any problems.Re: Skyline RVWe bought a 28' walkabout 5th wheel about 18 months ago and really like the unit. I don't really ncare for the slide out type but we have not had any problems. I tow it with an 08 F350 diesel crewcab shortbed and use a pullrite 5th wheel. We have the bunkhouse model. One thing to watch is make sure the slideouts are in when you are looking. That is to make sure that you can get to the bathroom nand open the fridge. Some units you can't do this.Re: Walkabout 5th wheel by skylineWe bought it because we liked the layout and the length. We can get into national parks, national forests and BLM land with this. We have had a 32', 34' and 39' and they are too big for where we go now. We can get to the bath and use the kitchen with the slide out in, which we could not do on the others. We learned to check the unit with the slide out in now. I know it takes time to learn some thingsWalkabout 5th wheel by skylineWe just purchased a 2014 Walkabout 5th wheel 28bhs. Has any one else got one from this company, not necessarly the same model and how do you like it?Re: Bent frame on new Forest River Wildcat TTThe dealer advised me to file a complaint with the Oregon department of Justice under Oregon's lemon law. Some wiring is protected and some is not, same with the water lines. Forest River says the wiring and water lines should have been protected.Bent frame on new Forest River Wildcat TTWe Purchased a new Forest River Wildcat 26ft TT in July of 2013. This July I dropped the belly pan to install some 12V power outlets. When I did I found that most of the electrical wires were not protected from chaffing on the frame as well as the water lines, but my biggest surprise was when I got near the axle and found that a frame cross member was bent. I believe that Forest River should buy this back. Where was their quality control? Please let me know your thoughts. If any one would like to see a picture of the cross member let me know.
