Our 2012 Wildcat Sterling Edition 31RL. We love the layout and all the windows.





Our 2010 F-350 Super duty. This replaced our 06 with a 6 liter. We bought used from a dealer. Engine puked 26 days after purchase. Dealer bought it back and we got this 2010 from them as a replacement.

Arches National Park

8245 miles, ~7000 towing (lost my notebook of tow miles and reset the dash counter in error so need to manually recompute with the help of MapQuest), 12.4 mpg overall, ~11.4 mpg towing. 15-20% biofuel East of the Mississippi dropped me over a mpg overall. Used 9 gallons of DEF (thanks to TSB 14E03)

Zero problems other then a small self inflicted dent from a poorly placed tree in a crappy CG

The 5ver's new home in Apache Junction Arizona. End of Trail for this one. This is at the last road in AJ and has a great view of the Superstitions. It is mostly open Desert all around except for some great nearby shopping.

Look us up. We are back in Oregon after dropping the 5th Wheel at Budget on Old West Highway and Cortez. We will be back for the winter After Halloween.

I know where Gold Canyon is. You should have no trouble spotting the King Ranch. Coffee is on me.

P.S. and if you ride, so do we.

305RL Montana High Country

the 305RL comes in at a shipping weight of 10095, carrying capacity of 2045 and hitch weight of 2175, posted at 33'11" but actually a little over 34' nose to bumper, Behind the F250 6.7 ltr you don't know it is back there. we love the combo and floor plan.

What do you think. Does it look like around 52 feet? The 5th Wheel is 36 feet (plus a little). I think I measured the truck at 22 feet one time. With an 8 foot bed covered by 6 feet of 5th wheel ??????

I guess I could go find my tape but the 5th wheel is in Arizona and I am in Dallas Oregon.
