fifth wheel

We are new to RVing and are looking to purchase a 5th wheel but are unsure of which RV model would be the best fit for a Ford F-150, 3.5 Liter, eco-boost with max towing package (3.55 axel). We are deciding between the Reflection Grand Design 150 series 230RL or the Grand Design 150 series...

Hello all, I'm have a question about winterizing a 2017 Coachmen Chaparral 324 fifth wheel. In the water bay I have turned both knobs to city water hookup/winterize. Turned the water heater knob to bypass. Hooked up hose to winterize port. Turned pump on and it pulled in 5 - 1 gallon jugs. So...

I have a 30’ Rockwood fifth wheel and have space on the side of my garage to park it, but there is no way I would be able to “wiggle” it into that position with my truck. Have any of you used a power trailer dolly to maneuver your fifth wheel?? I am looking for recommendations on brands and...

Looking to sell my 5th wheel for $29,500. Feel free to contact me for any questions.

Hello, My wife and I just placed an order for a brand new Arctic Wolf fifth wheel on Sunday at the Hershey show. This is our first new unit, and first fifth wheel, we started out many years ago backpacking, then had a slide in for our pickup, then a small pop up, then a 24' TT. We sold the TT...

I have a 2017 Ford F-350 Dually, 4WD, 8' bed..Trailer is 2018 Riverstone Legacy 38RE with airbag hitch pin. Before our summer trip I installed Firestone bags with compressor to lessen lean and wear & tear on tires and truck. Rough roads in Oklahoma caused rear slide problems as well as other...

After owning our Fiver since June , we finally spent Labor Day weekend in it. I'll just say that we enjoyed it immensely and didn't want to go back to work.....5 months and 12 days from now we'll be in it for good....Can hardly wait.

Anyone have a solution to the task of taking the fifth wheel hitch in and out of the back of a pickup ? Have a Curt Q-20 that weighs around 140 lbs.

I've been considering getting a portable generator for our fifth wheel for the last few years, but now I am getting serious about it. The eye of Hurricane Harvey passed within 20 miles of our home a week ago and we've been living by means of our whole house generator ever since. Now I'm...

Over our past few trips, I'm seeing more and more fivers being towed via the gooseneck, these fivers range from a small 30' to a triple axle TH. Are there any pros to towing via the goosekeck instead of the fifth wheel plate? I thought that it causes more stress on the trailer and the manu may...

On two occasions, our external kitchen door popped open while we were pulling our 2017 360PDEK..well, this time it had popped open while I was pulling it into storage ripping off the door and bending the frame and folding the foam door. I'm not sure it can be flattened and bent back to fit, but...

I have a Rockwood Signature Ultralite 8280WS fifthwheel. When hitching to truck and putting weight on truck by lowering front jacks - the fifth wheel makes a creaking noise. Not a metalic sound - more like a plastic sound. I have inspected the hitch welds and interior/exterior walls for any...

2017 Rockwood 8299BS. Electric front landing jacks. Anyone else have their front landing gear slide up in the bracket? There are notches on the frame and the leg brace to keep it from sliding up, but ours slid up a few inches on one side. Was able to loosen up the cinch bracket bolt inside...

I'm looking to get a Columbus this fall and have a couple questions that maybe some of you could answer? You guys know a lot more about these than I do! 1. Is there any way to add on a second year warranty like you can with Rockwood trailers? I currently have a Rockwood 2906WS and am looking...

what kind of weight can I put in the front garage part of the fifth wheel. I know there are two bars underneath the thin metal, but I am concerned that I may be overloading it (talking about the area of the fifth wheel directly behind the tailgate) I want to put 4 6v batteries at 68 lbs in...

We bought this fifth in 2008 and have nothing but leaks from the rear corners from day one. The first time we noticed something was going on was within a year when we discovered a dark spot on the carpet in the door side rear corner. Right way, I began looking for places that water might be...

Asking for my father, he wants to get a 5th wheel camper but I don't think he can with a 5.5 foot truck bed. Maybe there are special hitch parts to make it work? Any info would be appreciated

At some point in the future we will be getting a larger camper for our seasonal site. Since we won't be towing it anywhere, we don't need to worry about trailer weight or tow vehicle setup (we would have it delivered to the site). The trailer we have now was originally purchased because it would...

Newbie question: as I look at truck specs for towing, etc, I read that there might be bed length requirements for 5ers. I currently have a conventional TT, but if I'm going to buy a truck, I want to make it "future proof" in case I move into a Fifth Wheel eventually. Not a huge one...

Hi All really need some assistance as we are getting so many numbers with regards to install of second AC unit. Our coach is pre-wired and has a two zone thermostat already in the unit. Forest River says they have an AC there for us but they move so slowly and my coach is at a camping world...

Compliment, not a complaint. Have a B & W fifth wheel hitch. Bought it used and have been very pleased with it. Like the fact that It can be removed making my entire truck bed usable. Recently had a problem with the u bolts that tighten around the receiver. One of them threw a thread and I...
