fifth wheel shopping

[fyrescott]

Here is a tough one for you. I'm in the market for a new 5er, it has to be 28-30ft double slide... dinning room/bedroom. Here's the tough part... It has to have the rear bunk bed room. I can't seem to find any makers that offer this. Any one know?

Check out King of the Road, I'm pretty sure they make a rear bunk bedroom.

The bunkhouse model is our floorplan of choice. The trailer is new, so we don't have much seat time in it yet, but our 10-yr old sure loves his room! Here's the manufacture site .

Another option one which we like is the twin bed option up front then we got the sleeper sofa for us the kids love it and we like the extra room you seem to get by not having bunks. The sleeper sofa has flip out foot rests which is cool and really makes you feel like you are roughin it. My 2 cents.

Jayco makes bunkbed models in that size also. We have a Jayco with bunkbeds and 3 kids ages 7-14. The bunkbeds are absolutely awesome-a place to sleep at night and use as storage during the day or when traveling. The kids also enjoy their own space.

Like boonedocker said the couger(by Keystone) has rear bunks on some models. The cougers pull very nice as the nose is swept back.

Fleetwood makes the 2952BS with the rear bunks, which are extra wide and rated for 350 lbs. It is sold in two content levels, in the Prowler, Wilderness, and Terry brands. I've toured the factory, and talked to numerous multi-line dealers and Fleetwood has apparently made great strides in quality.

The only DOUBLE slide bunk model that we have found in that size is a Mountaineer by Keystone, brand new for '04. It looks like the one we will be getting.

Bob V Thank you very much. That is what I'm looking for, and I particularly like the Keystone line. Once again you can always count on a TDR member.

fyrescott, We have been shopping for a while for just what you are looking for. We are excited about this model, but haven't seen one on a lot yet. I don't know where you are at but we found a GREAT salesman in Central Oregon. The Mountaineer seems to have good quality at a good price. Now, if they just offered it with the rear storage like the Cougar.

So far, at least, Thor seems content to leave the Keystone operation alone.



We're extremely happy with our Montana! Oo. Oo. Oo.

I don't known where your located, but go to www.lazydays.com

just outside of Tampa Fl. They have 1500 units on the lot right now. If they don't have it they can get it. Contact a sales person there. Pick it up down here and head for disney for a week. Alot of people do that.
