fifth wheel

Came across this pic at a repair shop today. Figure it's going to take the towing world over.

We are looking at a rockwood ultra lite 2440ws. Any experience towing with tundra or tips. Max towing is 10500. Gvwr on rv is around 8100. Rv comes with a Reese revolution hitch

Hello to all, I am new here and am looking forward to learning and sharing info on campers. I own an older (1997) fifth wheel Wildwood and a newer (2011) Chevy diesel truck. I ended up raising the camper with a lift kit in order to get enough clearance between the camper and the truck bed panels...

We just bought a new 2016 Eagle 293 RKDS. We also bought a Dodge/Ram 3500 with the Cummins Diesel and dual rear wheels (probably overkill for this trailer). Previously we have had Jayfeather 23B, so this is our first fifth wheel (and my first diesel). Any tips as far as driving this rig or as...

For those who search the enter web looking for information on capabilities of F 150 towing and stopping a fifth wheel...search no more. I have. 2011 F 150 Lariat crew cab, standard bed, with eccoboost and I had searched many forums before purchasing my 2017 Rockwood Ultra Lite 8289 WS fifth...

The rear tires of my fivr seem to be wearing on the inside ...rest of tire is ok and front tires are good...can you tell me if this is normal or can there be an alignment done on these rear wheels Thanks

Took out our new Rockwood this past weekend for a trial run. A few minor things need fixing but nothing that really changes camping in it. A rear door seal that need replacing due to gasket being twisted resulting in very difficult opening of door and screen on front door creating a problem...

Hello. My decals on my 2007 Sierra fifth wheel. Are faded and peeling and look terrible. I have called a few rv dealerships that are local to me and that all have stated that they do not make the decals anymore for that year. I have also called a few local sign company's and they all have quoted...

Creepy! True Story. So I was walking around outside, looking at the chickens, watching the cats, and opened up the garage doors getting ready for a busy sunny day around the house. Pulled off the top of the baby duck pen and was checking out my new ducklings when all of a sudden, I heard music...

I need your help. I'am needing to buy a new fifth wheel hitch and need some advise. My Unloaded Vehicle Weight (UVW) is 10,895. And my fifth wheel vehicle weight rating is 14,000 lbs. How do I determine what size of hitch I need to buy? Will a 16K work? Seems like it jumps from 16K to 20K...

We recently bought a used 2013 fifth wheel wildcat. We owned a surveyor travel trailer and had issues with it whipping around in the wind and just had a hard time backing up (more DW). We pick it up from the dealer next Saturday and me more than DH is a little concerned about driving a bigger...

We're on the lookout for our first RV for a family of 5 and like the Wildwoods overall, and have stumbled upon the Wildwood 33BHOK Fifth Wheel. We were surprised to find this fifth wheel is about $10k less than other fifth wheels....and so we feel a bit skeptical. (We had pretty much settled...

If you are close by the South Shore of Massachusetts, I have a 3 season old Reese Titan 16K 5th Wheel hitch. Nothing wrong with it, we traded our Flagstaff 8528RKWS for a Motorhome. It is in the back of my F-250 and in the way. It is fixed mount, no slider. Works well with the Revolution...

We ordered a new Cardinal 3850rl fifth wheel and it's 6 weeks out...does anyone know with the slides closed are you able to open the fridge and access the bathroom?

I am having a really hard time imagining how much stuff I will be able to have in a 5th wheel if I get one for full-time living. I've seen the inside of one but my sense of space and volume and my ability to envision it when it's not right in front of me is shockingly poor. I'd be grateful if...

We will be picking up our new 36cK2 at the end of March. Do to its size we cannot store it at home and will need to store it at a outdoor storage facility. We are considering buying a cover for the fifth wheel since it will be sitting in complete sun. Do you cover your fifth wheel? Are there any...

Anyone upgrade from twin 30lb bottles to 40 lbs bottles in their fifth wheel? I am thinking of replacing 30's with 40's for more capacity and only adding like 100lbs of weight, I have a 2013 Crusader 295?

We have a 2017 Rockwood ultra lite 2440ws and we want to put a hitch on the rear to pull our Kawasaki teryx 4 on a 12ft trailer. Has anyone done this? If so what kind of hitch was it and was there anything that had to be done to before it was put on? Any modifications?

After years of towing a TT toy hauler, we made the mistake of going to a sports show in Feb! Ended up buying our first FW toy hauler. After transferring everything from the old TT to the new FW, we finally got it home and into our storage spot. It's a 2017 FR Cherokee 255RR. It's Cherokee's...

So my fifth wheel just came from the factory to the dealer and they found that someone at the factory drilled into my grey water tank. Also, roof paint was not dry when sealant went on and all sealant is bubbled up. Very disappointed in factory quality assurance process.

Some of you may remember from last August, when my Pullrite head hitch failed, causing approximately $14K in damages to my 5th wheel and pickup. The pickup bed has been replaced, the 5th wheel is supposed to be ready, waiting for the weather to thaw out a little to bring it home. I seen...

I'm getting a little concerned about the height of my Forest River WildCat maxx 5th wheel (2015 272rlx). Right now it is 13 feet high as measured in the garage with a laser. That's okay for most roadway travel. I can certainly monitor that. The problem is trees and overhangs in campgrounds...
