5th Wheel Reflection
Help me pick- We are coming from a travel trailer Forest River 29vbud. My TV is a 2022 RAM 3500 Megacab with the HO engine.
We have two kids (6 and 10) and are more of weekend warriors with our busy schedules!
We can't decide between these three bunkhouse models.
Reflection 28BH
Reflection 31MB
Reflection 311BHS
We like the 28BH but it seems to have less internal storage and we could not find a pantry in the videos we watched.
We likes the 31MB but not a huge fan of only having 2 other beds besides the main bedroom. We will sometimes have our kids friends or family go with us. Also not a huge fan of the TV location.
The 311 seems just a little too fancy and too much for our needs with just being weekend warriors. Is this opinion wrong?
I wish it was as easy as just walking through them but finding a dealer close with all three in stock is a challenge.

I am in Evansville, Indiana.
Can someone give me some fair prices that they have paid for these as well?
I know their MSRP prices.

We have a 2017 311BHS and the main reason that we chose that model was the extra space. We are weekend warriors usually and have my son, daughter-in-law, twin granddaughters, daughter, sister-in-law and the DW and I. On longer trips it's usually the DW, Sister-in-law and myself.
In the bunkroom we can easily fit my son, daughter-in-law and the granddaughters, the Sister-in-law gets the dinette and there is enough room between the fireplace and the recliners to put a twin air mattress. We also use the outdoor kitchen for 90% of our cooking.
We first started we pulled the 311BHS with a Chevy 2500 but after the first year we upgraded to a 3500HD. Just pulled it better than the 2500 and gets better gas mileage.
So I guess the short answer is if you're going to have a bunch of people with you on your trips the 311BHS will offer much more room. Your kids will have the bunkroom for there games and the tri-fold couch gives you room for 2 guest.Les and Sharon Bevil

Having access to the bathroom with the slide in is important to us which all 3 have. CCC might be a deciding factor. Some don't like having a slide on the camp side. We now prefer to have the dinning on the camp side. Hard choices for sure

Can someone tell me what a good deal is for these? What % am I looking for off of MSRP?

Pre-COVID it wasn't unusual to get around 25% off. With the supply shortages, and the huge demand for RVs, those days are, basically, no longer.
Best suggestion is to get an online quote from a dealer (not necessarily the one you're looking to buy from). Ask for a "rock bottom" quote. Then take that along with you to the dealer you want to purchase from and see if they will at least match the quote. That's what we did. Now, the dealer we had to quote from was 300 miles further away, but we were willing to make that trip to get the price he quoted, if necessary. Happily, the dealer closer to our house did match the quote. We got 23% off (5 years ago)
