2005 5th Wheel reviews

We have been living in our 2005 Dutchman Victory Lane for about 7 years now and it is STILL in great shape - durable. We did replace the roof skin this year to increase the livability time, but other than that, everything else seems to be holding great. The only thing I don't like is the oven and the counter space (or lack thereof). I prep using the sink cover when doing meals. Other than that, I love my SRV! Show less

This RV has been the best we’ve had. The quality of this unit is just amazing. Very roomy. Lots of storage. Everything we wanted in a fifth wheel camper. There’s a huge closet where you can put a washer and dryer. Huge bathroom vanity with with extra drawers. Toilet is located in its own little room, which is nice. Love the wrap around island. Very spacious living area. Table and chairs are very nice. Table expands out as well. A lot of basement storage and this awning does not compare with any other. It’s a very high-quality awning had no problems whatsoever with it. since we’ve owned it, we’ve only replaced the air conditioning. Show less

This is an extraordinary fifth wheel. The construction is the most solid of any other fifth wheel I've owned. No issues or failures. After 15 years, it is still remarkable as it was when new. The only draw back is the weight. It's heavy, but you must understand if you want something as solid as this it will be heavy. Even with an aluminum frame fifth wheel it still weighs in as more than 13,000 lbs. I would buy another, if they still made them like this. Show less

After learning a bit with a older class A rv for 3 years I decided a 5th wheel was a better fit for me then also I want space and comfort because we planned to live aboard and travel After two trips across county Georgia to California we took the rv to Alaska this is we’re the rv proved it’s true 4 season capability. We ended up living in Alaska for five years and we’re very comfortable we did not dry camp very often but we could manage 3 days at a time but this was before solar chargers and I never installed a generator but we did have two batteries My only regret was selling it hope this helps Show less

We are original owners of a 2005. It was perfect to have a separate bunkhouse for our son while he was growing up. We never had a problem with this unit. It served our family very well. Quality was superb, upholstery, appliances all have served us perfectly. Show less

We loved this RV. The layout is perfect. It is very easy to pull and to set up. It has so much storage. My wife pulled it often, with no issues. The layout was perfect for us. We used air mattresses for the grandkids and they loved it. It provides the privacy one needs also. We are the second owner. When we purchased it, the plastic covers were still on the bed. The stickers were still on the shower. The only major tool on it, is sun fading on the exterior. We have kept it in a garage the whole time we had it, until this past year. Show less

I want to let everyone know about the cheap quality of most of the materials used to build, the craftsmanship looks like a 10 year old did it and did not care about anything from squareness to clean-up in the vents to cutting holes for plumbing, so many things about the workmanship, it would be pages.Super disappointed and would bet the cheap Chinese would do better, just take a good look at all angles before you lay down hard earned money for this 3rd string rig!

I had just gotten a job to move from Oklahoma to Florida when there was an RV show in town and we went there and bought a 30 foot keystone outback Sydney fifth wheel. It towed great through a near hurricane all the way to Tampa and we lived it it for three months very comfortably until we found a permanent house to purchase. A few months later I went out to make my monthly check on the fifth wheel in storage and discovered the rubber roof had shrunk leaving a gap all the way around The edge of the roof except for the front clip. Keystone and the roof manufacture said it was rat damage but nothing else in the storage area had that problem and how did Rich get of the roof when there was nothing within 30 feet. My insurance company graciously I said that it was storm damage and paid out $9000 to replace the roof. Later that year we took it back to Oklahoma to visit and a 15 foot section of the side fiberglass came off on the highway in Louisiana on the interstate. My insurance company paid $6000 repair it. We took it on a 200 mile trip to go sightseeing with no problems, then a three day trip to South Florida with no problems It sat for another two years and as we were getting ready to take another long trip we discovered the rubber roof had leaked again and destroyed the floor from front to back where it was spongy. The insurance company refused to pay for a second new roof. It was less than a year old when Keystone and the roof manufacture both refused to fix it calling it rat damage. I will never buy another Keystone product. I now have an all secondhand 2002 motorhome. Show less

Excellent small (26') RV for a couple or single person, rear living floor plan gives room and good view of TV. Slide is deep 40" and 6' wide, great for the dining area. Light weight pulls easily, could use a half ton to pull it. Show less
