Looking for some help narrowing down all the brands.

We want a 5th wheel with a bunk house.

What I can't stand is all the "country kitsch" interiors of almost every brand out there. I see paisley prints and want to run out screaming....

My dread would be a 32' 5th wheel with the interior of an Airstream International.

Does anything even close to that exist?

Thanks!

What ...are you saying that you don't like how many of the manufacturers do their interior decors?...

I totally agree with you. A lot of interiors look like they came from an Amish flea market. Why??

@sharon, you would think that since the bunkhouse's were made for families they would not gear the interiors for Aunt Bee.

You have two options it seems, "retirement community" or the way other side of the spectrum with "Nascar and dirt bike decor" checkered flags, racing stripes flames etc.

I know this thread is new, but I'm hoping something exists!

@downtheroad, hmm medieval doesn't really count as "modern" does it?

And then there's the strangely aggressive names and graphics on the exteriors now! I can't imagine driving about the country with "Intruder" on the front, but then our old "Prowler" wasn't much better. I've teased my sis about her Cougar ever since she got it.

@sharon, my buddy bought a used "Swinger" branded RV a while back. Its really nice, but his wife wasn't impressed when he rolled in the driveway. She thought it sounded like advertising

Tbohen, the Airstream is GORGEOUS. Now that's what they ought to look like. We just bought a bunkhouse 5th wheel (picking it up tomorrow!) and it's ...okay in terms of decor. While shopping, I saw some better decors in the fancier toy haulers. Look at these pics:

Not lovely like the Airstream, but at least no country prints & ruffles.
