Hello fellow owners,
My wife and I just got our first 5er after two years of searching. Budget, size and brand took me so long. I have towed many other types of trailers (boat, pop-up, rescue equipment) but never a 5er. I am so glad we waited for the right rig for us. Tows great!
We got a very well taken care of private party from 1st owners 2006 2955rl with aftermarket 7000lb axles from Tucson AZ. Custom leather couch in rear that jack knives into a queen bed. Leather euro type chairs and custom table. All this allows us access to the bed/bathroom without any slides going out. King size sleep number. Boy oh boy are we glamping now. Towing it with 2005 Dodge diesel 4x4 quad cab. B&W patriot 18k slider and 46gal additional fuel tank tool box combo. Air bags on truck and airborn hitch. I am amazed it never made a sound even on bumpy roads.
Just wanted to say hello and let everyone know I am open to any advice. Taking it to lake pleasant for a shakedown cruise this weekend. We are not full timers yet as we are still both employed. Sticks and brick home is in Phoenix. Our home on wheels is anywhere I want to go and we love that idea!
Dan and Nikki

Welcome to the forum from sunny Eastern Washington. I am sure you will enjoy your unit and it will provide lots of good memories. We like Phoenix and have a small place by North Mountain. Between the fifth-wheel and Phoenix we are away from home a lot.
Lots of good people on the forum with lots of great info that they are happy to share.
Tom Marty
