New Fiver Day....

After much deliberation and studying, reading, learning, comparing designs, build quality, features, etc. we decided to go with a 2020 Mobile Suites 38 RSSA.

Enjoy your new RV. I suggest you join the DRV section of the Thor Forum.

Nice to see you have a great setup to pull that MONSTER. I have the same setup in a 2015, tows my 33-35k combined VERY nicely!

Thank you for your help on choosing the Ram! We could not be happier with this amazing truck. Every creature comfort and modern feature is there (except for built in massage in the seats). And 1000 ft. lbs. of torque will come in handy with the heavy 5th wheel.

And, MONSTER is right. The 38 RSSA is a beast of a coach and HEAVY. Since we are not full-timing, and we plan to explore all-around the country, I'm wondering if the much lighter Jayco Pinnacle might have made more sense? But, we pulled the trigger on the Mobile Suites, so what's done is done. It should hold up pretty well doing a lot of traveling.

Want a Cadillac or do you want a Chevrolet?

It certainly is! We're entering our third year with ours and have had no problems. I'll take the Caddy even if it's heavier...

Weight is irrelevant when it comes to your truck! Example, FULL RAW of 9,750# and truck sets exactly as it did before hitching thanks to the Factory Rear Air Ride.
