2010 Show

Bought our first fifth wheel at the Louisville show in 2010. It was a 2011 Keystone Sydney Outback, 36 ft triple slide, front bunk house. It was a great, fairly inexpensive unit. Served us well. We switched to a 2015 Cedar Creek Silverback, 37 ft, REAR LIVING. Love this one as well. Quality is a step up.

Enjoy the show. We are going to a small show here in Atlanta tomorrow morning. These things can be fun....

If we hit the Lottery draw tonight, won't be going! Prevost designer will be coming by the house

We went today and were disappointed in the lack of high end fivers. Seemed to be lots of TT. Had a good time anyway on a wintry day. As a bonus I got to see an talk to Sabre Sam who now reps for Montana. He said to tell everyone hello and he misses the group here on the forum

We went on Friday and had the same thoughts. We were really hoping to see the high end 5ers, but they just weren't there. Lot's of TT of you are looking and plenty of 5ers for that matter. Just not the higher end models.

We bought one!
We weren't looking for high end 5ers so we were glad to see lots of TTs.
We bought an upper end 2 people TT that the dealer said was aimed
at "older couples" which is us!
Electric jacks all 4 corners and tongue. 20' electric awning.
HUGE bathroom. Really! 2 people could dance in there!
Full length mattress!
We're excited! Momma retires in 9 weeks!!

I'm wanting to keep my low miles truck for now and this trailer is 2500 under my max.
We won't be passing the semis on the hills anymore but we'll get there!

Here's a link if you're interested.....2015 Evergreen Ever-Lite 242rbs, Madison OH - 113927504 - RVTrader.com
It's not a FR product but I still hope to hang around the campfire since
there are so many conversations here that aren't brand specific.

Kydan thats the same microwave set up I have in my Lacrosse. Take a peek to make sure the feet of the micro are supported. Mine was not and pulled outta the cabinet and a road trip. Couldn't believe it was only supported by the face plate..
