    Re: Considering A Solitude but have a few questions

    Diane, welcome to the forums and congratulations on your Solitude 368RD purchase!
    When we were shopping this past summer and first discovered the Solitude, the 368RD was the first one we saw. The rear dining model is so usual. It is really a beautiful camper, as is all of the other Solitude floor plans.

    Re: Considering A Solitude but have a few questions

    I have a Solitude 369RL and I have traveled over 5000 miles with it since March and I have had no serious problems at all. Just a few minor things that were adjustments and some customizing that I wanted to do. I have had no trouble with the tires as of this time. I just make sure I check the air everytime I travel. I love my Solitude more than any other fifth wheel I have owned. I am camping in the mountains right now and it has been kind of cold and with the additional insulation it seems to heat pretty well. I plan on traveling many more places within the next year. I do not see any problem with living in this unit full time. I am pondering on that idea now. This unit is heavy but tows without any problem.

    Re: Considering A Solitude but have a few questions

    Hi
    I am towing the solitude 369 with a 2010 Dodge RAM Diesel Mega-Cab, 4x4 (SRW) and have no problem at all. I am still within the limits of my truck tires and GVWR. I did add air bag suspension on my truck but that was more for comfort and to soften the impact of the trailer during travel (and for hauling loads other than my trailer). I did not add it because of the trailer weight. I have a short bed so I I am using a manual slider hitch (Hijacker ULS 16).

    We plan to spend 5 months in it during the winter traveling the southern USA and then traveling a bit within Canada in the summer. It rides very nice. You hardly notice it's behind you unless your climbing hills (assuming you have a strong truck with enough torque like our Dodge)

    You should be fine if you have a truck with the proper weight ratings.

    Happy travels
