2017 Coachmen Chaparral 5th Wheel reviews

We purchased this rv because the second bedroom was perfect for when our two older daughters join us. They have their own room to sleep and store all their belongings. The living area is set up like a lot of other campers with the theater chairs and hab sofa. It's very comfortable to relax in. The residential refrigerator in the kitchen is nice to have though we have never filled it completely. The larger bathroom and shower makes using it with no problems. The king size bed in the bedroom is our first and we'll never go back to any thing small. There is ample storage space for all our things plus some. Outside storage is good as well, but the outdoor kitchen is not very functional. It has a sink and fridge but it's not easy to access. There is a spot to hang a tv but you'll have to manually load and unload on each trip. The 16ft awning provides plenty of shaded area and being electric with lights is a plus. Towing has not been too difficult. The challenge is the length of the camper at almost 42ft it can be a challenge getting in and out of sites, gas stations,and making sharp turns. You have to be aware of the 6pt. leveling jacks that can be damaged going over dips,rises and railroad tracks. We've enjoyed the rv but when we retire and can travel more we will probably downsize. I can see some challenges trying to pull this size rv on long trips Show less

I found one more expensive in new Braunfels tx but, this one is in better conditions. It's missing variety of blinds, carpet and appears tio have haff water damage. I also noticed damaged seals on the slides and water marks on the walls and mouldings. I wad approved today and I am giving 3k down but just need to take mine in for trade in, so the deal is not closed yet!!! Show less
