Ranking the keystone 5th wheel line

Just a question of quality of construction regarding the Keystone Product line of 5th wheels.

Is the order of Luxury and quality of construction
as follows or not:

Alpine, Avalanche, Montana, Montana High Country, Cougar, Laredo, Hideout, Springdale and Sprinter or is it different or does it really matter.

Looking for our forever, last for us, stable, long lasting, quality built and able to withstand lots of miles 5th wheel. Must haves include....King Bed, Auto leveling, stable front step, rear entertainment, 2 A/C and some comfortable recliners and big TV. Outside Kitchen would be nice but not required.

Once you get to the full size 5th wheels it is about gee jaws and foo foo...

Montana is probably #1 then Alpine, then Avalanche after that you drop into the mid-frame

When we bought our Avalanche, we looked at it and exactly the same floor plan in an Alpine... built in vacuum, motion light on the stairs and a power cord reel, and warmer blankets on the tanks was about the only difference, well that and a $7K price difference..

Check out the Redwood line! I'd say top of the Keystone line up. They're touted as "residential 5th wheels"!
Full-timed in ours for 6+ years with minimal issues, held up very nicely,
full body paint, w/d, dishwasher, & lots of storage.
Would highly recommend them!

Not with respect to quality, I read Montana is the largest selling line in the business.
