Buying a new 5th wheel

[ARD]

If I were in the market for a fifth wheel, I would be looking at Luxe. I saw one in Montana and have to say it was pretty sharp.

Others to check out would be New Horizons and Grand Design.

Floorplan is an individual preference. I think New Horizons has a great one. And as I think about it, I would lean towards the New Horizons. Check out the 2023.



If you can get down to the Tampa RV show which is happening any day now, I would try, as it will be a great opportunity to see a lot of RVs.

When I first started out, I was told to buy my first coach as if it was my third. I was going to start smaller, but realized I wouldn't be driving it ALL the time, so imho it's better to be comfortable and have all the things you want it to have whether it's a washer/dryer, etc.

Good luck on your search!

Now owner, my wife and I of third 5thW, what I would say to everyone looking for one
1) Make a list of what you want to do with it, so the one you found could meet expectations, and fit efficiency, ease of travelling with combination, budget wise .....
2) Go visiting as many as you can, choose one you will feel great in
3) If plan to buy a new one, what I call Manufacturer Quality Mindset is not what it use to be, your new trailer will definetely have imperfections and more.
4) We bought 3 used trailers in low season, getting deals. We had to go an extensive cleaning for the last one (smoker’s) but we love so much that trailer now that we will use north to south
