Well, we've taken the plunge! We have ordered, and expect to take delivery on a 2009 Copper Canyon 298FWBHS about 4/15. Got our factory spec sheet today and the loan looks good!

We are moving up from a hybrid and are excited about the spaciousness of the new 5th wheel. We especially like the larger, U shaped dinette and the slide out bunk arrangement.

We have a couple short shakedown trips planned and then it is off to the Tetons and Yellowstone for the last week of July. We missed out on Colter Bay a couple years ago, but we have reservations this time, by golly

Check out the pictures (via links) of a similar unit. We keep looking at them and can't wait for the big day!

Very nice. We picked up our 5er last April. We ordered it too with all the stuff we wanted. And check it out! We went to Yellowstone, The Tetons (Colter Bay)too. What I am getting at is CONGRATS and you are going to have a great trip. I wish we were going too.

Great looking Fiver. We have had the Copper Canyon 302RLS for 2 years and love it. Keystone makes a great product. Happy camping.

Very nice. Congrats. I have the Copper Canyon 252RLS and really like it. It's a 3 season but I like the un-enclosed bottom better anyway. I can actually work on it without cutting holes or taking panels out.....

Yep, that's a great floor plan. I was staring at it (on paper) for about 6 months. My wife really wanted the U-Dinette too.

I unexpectedly found a Sprinter 311BHS, an (almost) travel trailer equivalent at a show in Dulles VA. It was an attractive camper.

I had my kids with me for the next show in MD, no dealers sold Sprinter/Copper Canyon. Instead, my kids fell in love with the Wildcat 30Loft. Consequently, they won.

Congratulations, I'm sure you'll love the upgrade.

Very nice! The kids will love having their own "room" and that dinette is fantastic!
