Default High end 5th wheels under 30',do they exist?

I want to get into a 5th wheel in the 27-28' range but don't want to give up the options of my 32'.it seems as soon as you hit the 27-28' mark the trailers seem cheaply made.I currently have a 2011 Bighorn ti32 Titanium edition,it has many high end options.

Any links or suggestions will be appreciated.

Have you checked out Arctic Fox? I have a 27.5' and it is really well built, it is a 2013 model but I assume they still make them. It is only set up for two people though so if your looking for something to accommodate kids probably not what your looking for.

Don't know if you are looking for used, but Woodys in Edmonton just got a Winnebago I saw about a week ago. Nice wood work, granite counter top. Don't know if it's on the website yet, it looked like it was just traded in, not detailed yet.
Agree with the above poster, check out Arctic Fox.

Another vote for Arctic Fox. They seem to be well built units for sure, even the smaller ones (less than 30 ft).

Fox as mentioned and look at Outdoors RV as well. They are a subsidiary of Northland as well. Make sure you have lots of truck they are all well built and heavy even the smaller units. If you want to go wild and crazy or have fun go to Spacecraft Mfg and look at some real high end units.

We just bought a corsair yesterday. 29 feet and absolutely 100% top quality for an RV. It was even better than I'd hoped. Drove all the way to Edson to pick it up

My wife & I have a 2006 27.5 arctic fox for sale at the moment. We purchased it new, & it is in mint condition, except for some decals on the sunnyside which have peeled,-- this is very common with all trailers, I would prefer they skip the decals altogether. We also have no kids, but this trailer will sleep 4, two in the upper queen & 2 on the hideabed sofa. I replaced the junk trailer tires with 10ply Hankook's/ they are 16" wheels & tread is like new. Also two new 30lb. propane tanks , & 2 new batteries. This is a silver fox edition, & has gorgeous oak cabinets/ 2 slides-- one for dinette & sofa , & one upper which is the wardrobe closet. This is a 4 seasons coach- 75gal. fresh water tank. If you would like more info you could PM. me.----Titegroup.

Thanks everyone,we are going new for sure.I also dislike the decal type stripes and this is why we bought our current bighorn titanium ti 32,it has painted stripes and many high end options.Its just too big for us and towing a boat behind.

here is a link to a similar one as ours:

If your looking for new there pretty hard to find, the wife and I were in the same boat last year. We ended up buying one way bigger than we wanted, we told reps at the rv shows that they should be building more couples higher end trailers under 30ft. Like already mentioned, Artic Fox.
