Palomino Puma 253FBS

[stonz41]

I'm considering a Puma 253 FBS fifth wheel to replace a travel trailer. I'd like to hear comments from 253FBS owners about their experiences with the unit and how well it has met their expectations.
Thanks!

We purchased a very lightly used 2013 and it has met every expectation. Good solid unit with lots of storage and comfort, minus the rear jack-knifa sofa which is first on hit list to replace. The size of the 253 fits us, wife & I and occasional grand-baby, just right and has a more roomy feel than expected. Pulls well, as a 5th wheel should. It is not an ultra light but we opted for the metal sided vs. fiberglass. I like the Old School. This is our 3rd 5th wheel and this one will be around for the long haul.

We purchased ours new in '05 and have used it a lot. We really enjoyed ours. We recently did a slide remodel and turned it into a bunk house area witch works really well for us. We only used it 3 times since we finished the remodel and came across a real good deal on a great 2011 sabre 32BHOK so ours is up for sale. We have had real good success with ours. This little camper has plenty of storage in and out.
