5thwheel

Bad hail storm here in Rapid City yesterday. My F-350 also took a beating

Hey guys, new everything here. Never towed fifth wheel and never even owned anything but 1/2 ton truck. I always bunked in dads camper my entire life but he passed last October so I’m now in the truck/camper buying mode. I’m looking at a new Chevy 2500 gasser as I dont plan on towing more than...

I was attempting to adjust one of the round vents with the end of my cane, and succeeded in breaking the louvres. Where can I get a replacement? The outer measurement is 6 inches, and the inner hole with louvres is 4 inches.

Looking for feedback on the fiberglass roof option. I know it’s a feature of the Elite Suites, but recently saw that option ordered on a Mobile Suites. Pros and cons?

In the four and a half years we were on the road full time we visited all of the lower 48 and five CDN provinces. We never boondocked or used someone's parking lot. We did carry a Honda 2000 generator for emergencies. We stayed at numerous RV Parks/CGs we called overnighters. Sometimes for...

Looking at a used 31' Cougar. Just wanted to know if there is anything I should look out for. It's at a dealer and will be inspected and appliance checked/prepped. Thinking about just having them repack the wheel bearings just to be on the safe side there. Moving up from a 30' TT. Is there...

Looking at moving from a 30' TT to a 5 er. Found a few we like and found this page to already be a wealth of information.

We have owned a 2005, 36 foot Mobile Suite (RS3) for about 2 years now. The front air conditioner in the bedroom area (Zone 2) appears to be original but will only run for a short time before making a new different noise then causing the breaker to blow. The rear air conditioner in the main...

Newbie here, we have recently purchased a Holiday Rambler 2005 Alumacspae 31skd and am trying to source the rods to manually move slide out and spare tire. Any ideas where I can locate. Thanks

Hi everyone, My husband and I are about to purchase a 5th wheel for extended living. Nice to find a forum where we can I come together. We live in Florida right now but plan to travel a lot in it and go all the way to Alaska. Thanks, Orita

Ordered our Cardinal 370FLX with custom paint job in March. Was originally told due to COVID to expect around first to middle of June. Now, I'm told it's not going to be back from paint until mid July....anyone experiencing delays?

Just wondering if anybody had a brake hose somehow flip over and rub on the inside of the tire? It must of happened just before I stopped because I never noticed any braking weakness. Jesse at Kodiak set me up with another hose (FREE OF CHARGE!) but I haven't bleed the brakes out yet. It looks...

Hi y'all, found this dishwasher that doesn't need installation. Seems like they save a ton of water... but curious what y'all think? Supposedly available for pre-order only. Any experience with something like this? https://www.mini-dishwasher.com/barna

Will the DRV factory do non warranty work on units such as adding a cabinet or is that something best left for a cabinet shop? Thanks, FW

In reading the construction information on the DRV website, I see straight-line roof listed. Does that mean flat roof? I'm interested in purchasing a LX455, so just looking at things a little more closely or at least trying to. Thanks, FW

Looking to place a factory order on a fifth wheel for the first time. Is the dealer price negotiable on a factory order, and if so how much should I look for off MRSP and options? Is thirty percent too much? This is for a DRV Fullhouse toyhauler. Thanks

Not traveling, missing the adventures, got oodles of extra time? Reminisce with me. Find a picture taken during your RV travels, post it with a little note. Anything will do. Places and down the road pictures. Wild life, sunsets, birds and animals or seasonal changes. One day while parked at...

I have had the above unit since it was new. I recently had some minor damage to the back lower corner. I Have repaired the damage and now need to paint over the repair. Does anyone have info on the colors of that part of the trailer. I'm not sure if it's a decal or paint. If paint do you...

Planning our first trip to Utah from south Texas. Any route suggestions or other advice will be appreciated. We will be towing a 35' fifth wheel.

Does anyone know if it's possible to unclip, or unlock the TV mount in the living room? I want to access the back of the TV. Thanks, David

Hi guys. Just purchased a 2020 diesel superduty. I’d like to put a 4” lift and 37s on this truck. However, I was also looking at towing a fifth wheel in the future with it. Will this be too tall for a fifth wheel and if so why, and if not what will be my options.

Last year I had an issue with the batteries and thought they were old and just replaced them. The camper is always hooked to shore power when not on the road. Well the batteries went dead again. I removed the less than year old batteries, filled them with distilled water, and charged them...

Hello everyone from Tennessee. I am new to a forum, but have been around camping for over 45 years. My parents camped every weekend when us kids were growing up. I have owned a 2012 Keystone Alpine for over 3 years now and I am starting to have some issues. Thought maybe a forum could help...
