New to the 5th wheel world

Hi everyone............

After years of travel trailers, we decided to move up to our new (to us) 2014 Laredo 292RL, motivated by a 2018 GMC 3500HD with Duramax. Can't wait to get going!

congrats! We discovered a few years ago after spending a 2 week extended trip in our 2010 245RL (bought new), that the 292RL is what we "should have bought".

We love our Laredo, and it's perfect for our type of camping - smaller FS sites, hunting boondocking, etc ... but for longer trips (like we're planning now), an extra few feet inside, a pantry, wardrobe closet and the bed slide would have made it even more perfect.

Enjoy!

We are set up in our winter spot until April. The photos don't do the area justice as our back window looks out on the Straight of Georgia with lots of shipping activity every day, and we are next to a great park on a large spit of land.

Love it here, but can hardly wait to get on the road again.

Oops. The pics need to be rotated, and I have no idea how to do it. anyone offer some help?

I'm assuming you took the pics with an iPhone. If so you need to do the following:

*Bring up the pic on your phone and tap it to bring up options - choose EDIT
*Next choose the Rotate icon on the bottom (right most icon)
*Next tap the Orientation icon on the top (second from the left) - pic will rotate
*Tap done

Repeat steps above but rotating the pic back to it's original position. It should now appear correctly when you upload it to your post.

Your comment about "Back window view" is one of the ABSOLUTE BEST FEATURES of the Keystone RL model! We love our picture window views.
