Patti finally picked her favorite... 293rkds

We will be trading up for this one, 99.9%...
Our local dealer will finally be adding 5th Wheels to their inventory probably mid November.
It has all the standards/options that we would like. The main option is the 23 cu ft fridge. From doing the math this unit will be at our weight limits IF fully loaded. I do wish it had a third slide but then it would be off our list as it would be too heavy.
Searched to find one to look at but the closest seem to be Salem OR and Nampa ID...
Would like to hear from others that have the 293rkds . Any info would be appreciated.

We are looking at that floor plan too. We will factory order ours if we pull the trigger.

Options we would get
*Leveling system
*Bedroom tv
*Rear camera
*Dual pane windows
*Generator prep
*12 cu ft fridge
*Theater seating couch over the two rockers
*Bedroom ducted AC
*Special request factory installed rear electric stabilizers. Standard but not included on auto leveling option.
*Dinette booth
*Morryde pin box
*Maxxis tire upgrade
*Onan 5500 lp genset


We are still heavily pondering it. Little iffy on the electric auto leveling. We currently have lippert level-up hydraulic leveling and love it. Also not liking the galley tank has its own dump connection. So it can't be dumped with the other two tanks. Idiots! Also not liking no flood or porch lights. Next Sat we are going to look at one again for a few hours.

We are very pleased with ours. Had to make a trip to the factory to see one in person. That was the closest to us but worth the 3 hour trip, enjoyed the tour. We ordered one with the booth over free standing dinnet because there is only 2 of us and we gained the storage. Went with standard 8 cf frige for the same reason, you get extra pantry. Theater seating is great and we added thermal windows and mortyde pin box, nice features. The autolevel has workeg great from day 1. The bathroom door is a slider now so you dont have to go up and down the steps to open or close the door. Alot of room and storage. Ours came in just under 10,000 lbs dry. Pulling with silverado 2500HD 6 liter gas 4x4 with 4:10 rear with no problem. Tows great.
