New Fifth Wheel

The wife has her list down to 3 models, all Eagle - 293RSDS, 291RSTS & 321RSTS. Any pros or cons with either of these that would help her out. We have always been under 30', so any issues getting campsites ?

Should be no issues on getting a campsite. If your wife is like mine. get the one with the most storage. there is never enough.

We have the 321RSTS and haven't had any problems with NE campgrounds. Where at in NE are you located? We're in Springfield.

If the two of you, our 321 is PERFECT. About 2000 miles and 3 weeks use, and few minor issues. Lots of storage. See our options, we don't regret any of them. Tow easily, no problems in campgrounds for size. It is about mid size, equal number longer and shorter.

The shower was a "must have" for us too! The recliners/TV layout is best in 321. We had a rear kitchen so knew that was not what we wanted this time. The island/sink is what we have at home, perfect to work with. We wanted table and chairs, as we had. Good luck!

My choice would be the 321. We really liked that floor plan but our ended up with our current rig as it just felt like a better fit

The 321 fp is tried and true. We liked it also but ended up with the 351 cause it was in stock.

We originally considered a 321RSTS but eventually went with the 317RLOK because of the TV layout being on the opposite side of the stove/fridge. My wife likes to be able to see the TV when she's in there and it's difficult if it's on the same side. Its also got an outdoor "kitchen" thats really nice when you want to just hang out outside and still cook and enjoy TV etc.

Regarding options, we went the whole way, 2 awnings, backup cam, 2 ACs, 3 TVs, Maxxis tires. It being only the 2 of us we went with the standard 8cuft fridge. We did change out our base lippert pinbox to a Reese Elite Airborne and a B&W Companion hitch. We have a Dodge 3500 with a short bed and its really nice because I can make virtually 90 degree turns with it and not even a chance of it getting near to my cab.

Good luck!
