It was hard not to notice the eye-popping luxury fifth wheels when we visited the Hershey RV Show in 2023. But I couldn’t help but wonder whether some would be flash-in-the-pan additions or become mainstays in the RV industry. That’s why this guide will focus on the best luxury fifth wheel trailers with longstanding track records. 

Year after year, these RVs top our list of the best-selling fifth wheels in the luxury category. What makes them “luxury?” We’ve selected them based on factors like residential appliances, four-season living packages, price, and other conveniences you won’t find in an average fifth wheel.

Our Picks for the Best Luxury Fifth Wheel

Here are our selections for the best luxury fifth wheel campers available at a Camping World dealership near you

  • Dry Weight: 12,482 to 15,285 pounds
  • Sleeping Capacity: 4-8

Their newest models are upgraded with MorRyde® independent suspension, a stackable washer/dryer, and an automatic hydraulic leveling system.

Grand Design Solitude

  • Length: 34’4” to 42’6”
  • Dry Weight: 12,100 to 15,494 pounds

Grand Design’s lineup of Solitude fifth wheels is one of the most expansive in the industry. Their wide range of floorplans offers numerous exceptional layouts to choose from, and all are built on a 101” wide-body, drop-frame superchassis that provides more interior living space than most comparable models in its class. 

Designed for comfortable three-season camping, every Solitude boasts a thermal-insulated roof design, fully-laminated walls, a triple-insulated main floor, and a Rail-tite underbelly seal. Even the baggage doors and the floor under the gooseneck are insulated, which are areas often neglected in other fifth wheels.

Jayco North Point

Fifth Wheel Specs

  • Length: 36’ to 43’10”
  • Dry Weight: 12,885 to 15,835 pounds

Jayco’s manufacturing process is built on providing the safest and most secure trailers on the market, and their North Point fifth wheel lineup is no exception. They use a Magnum Truss XL6 roof rafter system that is tested to be one of the industry’s strongest and is backed by a 20-year warranty. 

Many believe fifth wheels are easier to tow than travel trailers, but Jayco takes things further with their 5 Star Handing Package. That package includes an ABS and tow assist braking system, a MorRyde rubber pin box, Dexter axles, and 17.5” “H”-rated Uniroyal tires.

  • Length: 42’7” to 45’
  • Dry Weight: 16,292 to 19,131 pounds

That package includes an automatic six-point leveling system, tire pressure sensors, an on-demand hot water heater, a stackable washer and dryer, heated holding tanks, an Infiniti light over the kitchen island, a Paykal dishwasher, and much more. Riverstone fifth wheels are also prepped for an LP generator and a four-camera observation system.

    Tucker could I have your opinion on the Columbus Palaninos?

    • Hi Chuck!

      We’re actually going to be featuring one of the Palomino floorplans in an upcoming article focused on Front Kitchen Fifth Wheels, coming up in early August. So stay tuned!

  • William A Price says:

    Many very nice 5th wheels out there. My wife and I looked at most all of them. We paired down our choices down to 3. Luxe, DRV, and Riverstone. While I believe we would’ve been happy with any of the 3, we chose Riverstone Signature Series 41rl. I believe it’s important that if your going to full-time like we are, that the 5th wheel was made for full-time living. These 3 are! Not all are rated for full-time, so just make sure you’re buying the right one. 😉
