Hi from Oregon
Thanks for letting me join this forum. My husband and I've owned truck campers for 30+ years and are getting ready to purchase a fifth wheel. We're now both retired and ready to travel.
Last week we toured both the Arctic Fox factory and the Outdoors RV factory on the way home from a trip to Yellowstone. We were impressed with the construction of both companies but went in thinking we would purchase an Arctic Fox.
We are close to deciding on purchasing the Glacier Peak F26RKS. We originally were liking the F26RDS but have learned that ORV is discontinuing that rear dinette model. We are thinking the smaller profile (12'10" height) of the Glacier Peak will be an easier transition to fifth wheeling. We love the space in the longer models, like the F26RLS, but are worried we won't fit in some spaces. So....our journey to learn all about fifth wheels begins!

Removed the "600D" that was erroneously posted due to being on my cell phone.
