Opinions on the Wild Cat fth?

Looking at spending about a year or so traveling with my wifes job. 13 week assignments so instead of finding a place that will take the dogs we are looking at a 5th wheel to stay in and travel. The plan is for stops in AZ, CA, CO, and AK to visit friends, but it will depend on where the jobs and work takes her. We know there is work for her in AK and that is a non negotiable stop on the trip.

We really like the Wild Cat Series from Forest River. Anyone have experience good or bad?

They're good units but if you plan on taking it to AK you need to specify the arctic package at a minimum.

Ya that is the problem with the north country. Just one visit and you don't want to leave.
Actually just talking about it makes me want to pack up and go to the land of the midnight fun.

Chris,
Since you will be living in this trailer for a year or more. I would suggest that you look at this site for information on RV campers.
http://www.jrconsumer.com/ Other members on other sites have highly recommend this for novice buyers of RV campers.
I would also look at a 5er that is built by Northwoods called an Artic Fox.
Here is the link for Northwoods. http://www.northwoodmfg.com/
