2015 Eagle 34.5BHTS FW

Went and picked up our new 5er this weekend. All I can say is WOW this trailer is sharp looking and very nice on the inside, spent 3 hours on the walk around didn't find any major problems, went over everything on the checklist found on the forum, the dealer did a good job on getting it road ready, with the B&W companion hooking up and unhooking is very simple and with my short bed I can go 90' with out hitting the back window with a non slider, very happy with the set up. The Mor/Ryde hitch made it nice and smooth on the interstate with our 4 hour drive home. Before we headed home I had a local tire shop replace the valve stems with metal ones and balanced the tires. My TST 507 flow Thurs worked great on the way home. We special ordered it with every option we could get: Solid-surface kitchen countertops
Thermal-pane, tinted, safety-glass windows
Bike rack/cargo tray system
Rear Dinette with folding bunk
MOR/ryde pin box
Customer Value Package with 15,000-BTU A/C
2nd 13,500-BTU A/C in bedroom
Keyless entry, main door
Outside grill with hoses

Didn't have time to take any inside pictures yet with the storms moving in today, but will get some soon.

Some changes I've noticed are the floors are back to a brown wood grain look and the remote has a new holder so it won't fall off the wall with just Velcro holding it in place

What a beautiful 5er! I really like the 1/2 bath w/outside entrance for the kids. It looks like it will be the perfect rig for you and your family.

Congratulations! and happy camping!

So far this summer we have stayed 22 nights in the 5er and pulled it over 5k miles staying At eight different campgrounds from Wilson Lake in Kansas, Camelot RV park in Poplar Bluff Missouri, KOA in Forsyth Georgia, Fort Wilderness at Disney in Florida, Canoe Creek in Saint Cloud Florida, Wind Creek State Park in Alabama, Maumelle campground in Little Rock Arkansas, and Viola campground at Table Rock Lake in Missouri, so far we really enjoy our new 5er it meets all our needs for space and comfort. With our 3/4 diesel truck it pulls it with no problem and pulls really smooth with the mor/ryde pin box And we have been on some really bad roads. Up next on our camping adventures is Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri to finish off our summer before school starts then traveling comes to a halt till next summer

Thanks for the info! I just ordered that exact setup and you hitch is the same one that I'm getting, now that you've been able to confirm that I don't need a sliding hitch. Can't wait to get it.
