You might want to look at Riverstone if you have not already ruled them out. I just put a deposit down on a new '19 on closeout in the price range you are looking at, and there are a lot of standard construction features and other things to like. But they are also heavier than the rigs you are looking at by about 2.5-3k lbs.

Give this place a call, you would have to probably place a order for one but this place gave us the best price back in 2016 and a friend just this year on a ordered in unit. They are the closest dealer to the factory.

That's a nice rig. If you can't get the price you want try these guys:

Yeah a big boy mural on the front. Awesome idea. I went to see the Big Boy locally when in the southern plains.

Very nice truck and will easily tow and carry the pin weight of those trailers.

So if you are going to pick a front living room I saw a Riverstone Front Living Room selling for 82k. I believe they have 3" wall thickness. It is the best 5th wheel that I have seen. Comes with disc brakes too.

I am guessing the 2020 3500 SRWs will tow these rigs as well, although pin weight plus peeps and gear is going to be pretty close on the payload.

I just looked - they have 3 RiverStone 5th wheels now. All 2020 models

Again the RiverStone is, IMHO better than Jayco North Point and the other 5th wheels you listed.

We saw it in Tucson. Spoke with Ed Dickens briefly, too. :-)
