5th Wheel RVs?

[Hugh R]

The washer/dryers are very small, like two queen sheets and two pillow cases per load. Look at stackable versus a combo unit, which is small but frees up a lot of cabinet space. The double wide refrigerators are fair sized, if you want full size you are entering a whole nother realm.

I have a gas Class A and don't know much about what you're looking for. But kids sleeping on couches and floors is a real bother.

That's a though question. The current market for new RV's is dominated by a few large mfg's. (Forrest River, Thor, etc) and their products vary greatly in quality. Many hidden defects that will show their ugly face one day after warranty expires. We really wonder if they have any form of quality control. Screws sticking out of the roof membrane, parts not properly sealed, staples in wires. We seen it all.

If you are looking at a used one don't worry too much about the brand. Maintenance is key. Has the unit regularly re-sealed? Did the previous owner clean and seal the roof at least once every 2 years? Every RV will have issues, it's all about how they are dealt with.
