Don't forget it was these 3 gentlemen who started Keystone from the ground up and made it into what it is today before splitting off and starting Grand Design. If I was a betting man I would say Grand Design will be considered as the premier RV manufacturer in a very short time.

Cill and I researched and looked at 5th Wheels for over a year before we bought our Solitude. We were only interested in Keystone 5th Wheels because of their quality. We really liked the Montanas, except for the shower being located in the bedroom on every model. We were about to pull the trigger on an Alpine so we could full-time, but my 80 year old Mother became ill and we moved her in with us. We decided that we couldn't full-time for now, so we decided on a Cougar. The day we went to make a deal on a Cougar the salesman wanted us to look at a new camper by a new company. He told us that the three owners had been with Thor and Keystone for years and had started this new company.

As soon as we walked into the Solitude, Cill was sold. As I looked it over, I could see the quality and how much better it was than Keystone. We left without buying the Cougar and I went home and started doing as much research as I could on Grand Design. Needless to say, three days later we were owners of #96 and haven't looked back.

I agree, it will not be long, Grand Design will be at the top of the RV industry.

Thanks for the pics, i have to ask, by looking at the pics i wonder if there is a clear view of the tv from all of the couch? Kind of looks like the center island may obstruct the tv from far end of couch. I didnt feel that when i looked at the 355. I really want the 385 for the 1/2 bath, thanks for your input!

Not sure about the TV. Maybe it is on a swing arm to adjust the viewing angle. Doesn't really look like it has a swing arm because the base of the TV is installed. The Garage and bedroom look the same as the pics on the Grand Deign website except there is no small fridge in the garage. The door is now where the fridge would have been. My wife liked the 385th over the 355th because of the extra 1/2 bathroom, the larger couch and the full pantry.

That's a good looking rig. I wanted a garage but the wife said no. We sure like our Solitude. LOL.
