"Luxury" Brand 5th wheel?

[Powder Extreme]

Has anybody ever heard of or seen a 5th wheel that is branded "Luxury"?



The other day I saw a HUGE 5th wheel in a truck stop. 48' long, triple axle, SIX slideouts! It had full body paint and the only markings I could find was a very prominent "LUXURY" painted on both sides of the trailer.



Anyone? Harvey? You ever hear of that brand?

I can't find anything on the internet about them.

I haven't noticed or heard of one recently but several years ago before the economy tanked some company built a few really cheap little box travel trailers and fifthwheels with that name on a shiny adhesive label stuck on. They were pretty flimsy trailers.

I don't think I ever heard the name of the company that built them. It was not one of the well known quality RV manufacturers.

This was definitely not a cheap built trailer, but obviously I didn't see the inside of it.
It had full hydraulic leveling jacks at all corners, air ride suspension and an air ride hitch. If the company is going to that expense you would think they wouldn't skimp elsewhere, but who knows. I'll attach some pics of it.

As far as tow rig, there wasn't one around. I'm guessing they dropped the trailer for the day to tour Yellowstone Park or something like that since it's nearby.

As big as that trailer is, it would have to be pulled with a medium duty.

Nick, now don't get the natives stirred up with this hearsay GVW stuff, cm'on. It's only a number ain't it?



They put a Toureg with a roof top mounted 5th wheel under the hitch hook and go. I seen it on youtube, got to be true.

That trailer does appear to be better quality than the cheapo stick and staple trailers I saw several years ago but unless it was built by one of the old quality RV manufacturers I would walk away from it.

When I was a child we once lived in a mobile home that was nowhere near as big as that tank.

Here's a website that has a similar trailer although it is a quad slide-out, it is 48' long. . must be a quality maker if they are not mainstream. .
