Looking to buy 2017 Rockwood 8301WS

My wife and I are real close to closing a deal on the above mentioned 5th wheel and was wondering if anyone has one or knows of any issues with this camper.

Any info is appreciated.

Dave: I'm looking at purchasing the 8298WS FW. I'm wondering what truck u have to pull it with and what kind of hitch u have to pull it. I'm thinking of getting the PullRite Glider. Any views on that? D.

I was just getting ready to post the same hitch questions myself. I have a F350 Diesel so I'm not worried about the truck. I was wondering if a Reese Elite 18K would be good enough. I like the rail under the bed and the puck system they have. This is my first 5th wheel so I don't know much about it.

Any hitch experts are welcome to chime in.

This 5th has a hitch weight of 1288lbs - gross weight of 10688lbs
