Pulling a 32' Everest by Keystone tripple slide. Have had it two yrs no problems & love the floor plan lots of counter space. The wife just had to have it. we had a 27' Komfort before that & had a few problems. I know I'm 900lbs over my gvwr with my 2500, but it's going to have to do until I can aford the dually I want. I have a pic in my gallery.

 

I have a jayco 27bh TT Only 2 years old. Well built for $$. I shoped around also liked prowler but for $$ Jayco was built just as good. Same models 3-5k difference. shop around and u will see the difference in quailty built and how they make 3 or 4 differnent model by same company just different in $$ .

 

See my sig. We bought our TT as lite weight, didn't have a real tow vehicle when we bought it. Its made by the same company that makes the airstream. No complaints about the quality. Also went with the fiberglass over a sheetmetal. As for the moisture, we always have a window open a little bit. Summer or winter, some fresh air is welcome. Now that I have a real tow vehicle, and can pull whatever, the options are almost endless as much as the price variance. I'm thinking of upgrading. The RV is great, my wife and two teenage daughters wouldn't tent camp. The RV has made some lasting memories we won't forget.

**Majority of the same appliances and hardware can be found in all the travel trailers. Unless you spend some big $$. So pick a floor plan after figuring out if you want a TT of FW. If your going to dry camp (boondock/no hookups), look for campers with larger holding tanks. The newer units are much lighter than unit 10-15 years ago. Slide outs mean more weight with the more room. Choose the gear driven slides over the cable units.**

 

27 ft Alipenlite never even feel it unless its a steep grade.

 

I tow a 28.5 ft. Golden Falcon made in Canada by Glendale. Good rig!

 

I have a 2003 26' toyhauler (Wanderer by Thor). It's been ok as far as trailers go. There have been many things that I have had to fix or upgrade, but overall has been pretty good.\

The bad - The service after the sale is a joke, and if you need anything fixed under warranty there is at least a six week lead time just t get in. I have done all of my own repairs because of this. I won't even consider Thor when the time comes for a new trailer.

 

we have a 27' Komfort Trailblazer 252t 5th wheel with 2 slides in the kitchen area and we just love it!! it easily is 2x heaver than my bout , but what a differance the fiver hitch makes for towing

 

i have a 2005 wilderness 365 bsqs 5ver it is 14,600 i traded a 1998 wilderness 335m 5ver man that was a big jump i tow it with a 2004.5 ctd 3500 drw it tows nice and straight although i havent hit no hills with it yet

 

Towing as indicated in my signature. Wife loves the Island Kitchen, and full size slides on each side in the main living area. Plain simple trailer. Never had any problems. Not made for up north in the winter, but niether am I. I have to head south of I-10 by at least Mid November.

I've had the Fiver for 4 1/2 years now. I've looked at 75k fivers, and can't find anymore room inside in those. You can find more stuff to maintain. When I'm ready to full time it, I will find more stuff to maintain most likely.

I have some pics posted of the rig.

We have a Sprinter 276fwrls ,a big upgrade from our Coleman popup! Can't even call it camping any more! But it sure is comfy!

 

We have a '99 32'RK Alpenlite with 2 slides.

Previously had a '96 27' Sunnybrook with no slides. It got a little tight after a while, we called it our "one butt kitchen". only one person in the kitchen area at a time.

We just bought a 27 ft 5ver, Forest River Salem. We both liked the floor plan and the price was right. It pulls like a dream. Can't wait to start using it.

 

2005 Thor Wanderer 275 WTB 5er. Posted pictures, waiting on approval. Traded in 24' Rampage Toybox.

 

Finally settled on a Frontier (Vanguard) 252SL TT. Lots of rear storage and places for the bikes.

Ah well, the 1967 17' Travellaire was a good unit and served us well, kids need some space.

The 5ver probably would be in my later years..

J-eh

Frontier (I like their advertising photos on the pages... Most if not all the TT and 5'ers are pulled by a DODGE!!! LOL...
