BIG BIG slide
This Jayco I saw on FB has the biggest slide I have ever seen on a 5ver. It also has one on the other side but regular sized. Not sure what the model but the year is 2012. Wonder how that Lippert frame is holding up.....

We just worked on of those !!!
Back a number of years I worked on a Thor “ACE” class A. It was 34 feet long and the entire drivers side was a slide.

We looked at a 2015 Lifestyle fifth wheel that had the entire drivers side a slide also ...it had a dinettes slide on the opposite... it was really nice..I think it was a hydraulic slide if I remember correctly..the long slide opened up the hallway to the bedroom and made the entire fifth wheel look huge..I would have bought it but it was way too heavy for my old truck and I didn’t want to get a new truck. Who knew 5 months later I would have a new truck

I have seen plenty of those full length slides on motorhomes, but have never seen one on a 5th wheel before! Thanks for sharing!

There's one of those parked in the same storage building as my TT. His is mostly glass though.

Seller of that camper said it was a 2012 Jayco Eagle 321RL. Sure can't find this camper in the NADA listing; they show one BUT it doesn't have the huge slide; there is also a smaller slide on the other side (smaller) making a total of two slides.

The Jayco crowd seemed to feel that the huge slide and associated issues was the reason the model got discontinued after a short run. Thanks! wg
