My Top 5 Couple's Fifth Wheels for 2024! • RV Nerd Preferred Picks

Taking a look back thru all the new, fun, and exciting things I've seen I realized there have been some fantastic couple's camping fifth wheels released recently. I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge a few of my personal favorites I've gone thru over this past year.

I think it's important to understand I am by no means saying "These are the best fifth wheels and the only ones you should consider" but rather I'm simply sharing a few that I personally like for whatever reason - even if it is impractical and just because I think it's "fun" or "weird" LOL

260MLE is my favorite of the bunch here. Feel like a lot of these are just too big for two people, but I'm weird and I like 5th wheels around 30ft personally.

I gotta tell you, this Jayco Eagle 28.5 RSTS is fantastic. We bought ours in 2022 when it was an "HT". We've been from one end of the country (South Carolina) to Nevada, with plenty more trips planned and every time we walk into it, we just can't believe how much we love it!

[gaildudlicek]

“If that jelly ain’t your jam” and “memberberries”. You crack me up! All of those that you’ve shown are really nice. I couldn’t find one that I didn’t like. Each has great features, and they all are beautiful.

[Irritablebowels]

Great video editing. Hit the highlights and lowlights quickly. And enthusiasm is underrated. Firm 🤝

[charlesklaus]

Interesting video but I don't consider 35 to 40 foot 5th wheels as being "couples models". 28 to 32 foot seems more like a couples model.

I would love to see a Toy Hauler list, I am going to moving to FT living in the next 6 months or so due to work. I'll have to have a TH due to what I need to carry for work. Love your videos and your honest options on what to truly expect. I plan to travel for Houston to Coldwater to get my RV.

Some of the must haves for us are an attached ladder for roof and slide maintenance, theater seating, a “two way” fridge for off grid camping, no “Denny’s” diner booth dinette, no cheap plastic toilets or Dollar Store 4” fart fans and a true queen bed👍👍👍

[tonybrinson]

Do a video on smaller fifth wheels 26 to 30 ft . For us no dinette is needed or if we have to have one make it a table for 2, full queen bed works, nice bathroom or at least a decent sized shower . And winning lottery numbers so I can afford a new one, lol

[scott]

Thank you for this! We have been waiting for a video of top fifth wheels for couples, or a so-called ‘bunk house free zone’. All good choices with much to offer. Now I just have to upgrade our truck!

Being a 6'6" man myself, my pick of the litter is the Forest River Sabre 37FLH because of the front living, HUGE bathroom in the rear and lots of headroom. Only con about it is the small propane tanks but other than that it's perfect.

[johncavender]

My wife and I have been looking really hard at the Forest River Riverstone 425FO. Thanks for the video!

[rvail]

Great video, Josh. I like the smaller/est 5th wheels the best. #NerdHerd

[wgreenjr]

Forgive me Josh, this question is unrelated to the video at hand but I have spent a considerable amount of time on google and can't find the answer. Are there any industry stated numbers for what different types of RV's can handle for wind speeds while set up. We spent the weekend at a campground with pretty high winds, 25 mph sustained and gusts to 45 and at times it was pretty unsettling. Are there any industry standards as to when you should bring in slides for rigidity? Wind speed where higher damage is possible? When googling, most information defaults to while traveling or hurricane/tornado conditions. Appreciate all your work and any insight you may have.

I am falling for the later 2023 and 2024 East to West 365RK - Has the nightstands

[BigDaw]

2 months ago we just bought the 23 316RLS and absolutely love it. Kids all grown up and bought it for us. Cougar makes it look good inside and out. They do seem to have soft floor but as a 6'3" guy I'm comfortable besides the chairs. Those recliners are not meant for tall people but couch works fine for me. Keep up the great videos Josh you help so much!

[sweetbear]

Thanks for your honest reviews. Your input definitely helped my wife and I on our camper journey. We recently purchased a Midnight Edition 290RLS and can't wait to pick it up in the coming week. I think it is perfect for a couple and gives the ability to bring the grandkids for some quality time.

[tomstrickland]

Happy memorial day to everyone....thanks Josh for all you do

[Snowman]

We had a chance to look at the Cougar 260MLE in person about a month ago. We share the same enthusiasm of this unit as you. Had a hard time getting my wife to leave. We both appreciated the layout. Works great for us to snowbird in while working remotely. Ordered a F350 that goes into production next month and will definitely revisit it once the new truck arrives.

[Erin-Thor]

❤ While my truck can’t tow these… those that have desks just might make it worth upgrading! 💙 If you get bored… I’d love to see a top 5 (or ?) of lighter shorter toy haulers.

We bought a GD 270BN last Oct. and love it so far!
