Wicked Looking Custom 48 Foot 5th Wheel from New Horizons

Quit being a Karen. This is a one off fifth wheel. You won’t see this at your local rv dealer bud. This is a beautiful rig.

[@danielaguila1]

I actually like them showing it unfinished. Kinda gutsy. We can get an idea how it’s put together. The rest we can use our imagination but but he’s actually explaining how the final product will look like. There are many videos of rv’s already out there to see final production.

[@timsteinkamp2245]

I really appreciate showing this unit in the middle of a build. The paint is most impressive and as you said it looks like it is moving. I will look for the finished product video but I wished you would have talked about the final weights you are going for and the different storage capacities you are planning. I'm also interested in the wall, ceiling and floor insulation and R values you are designing for.. I hope you put a good 9 panel solar panel array on the roof and make room for 8 flooded batteries running at 24 volts. Of course this unit will probably spend its life in a park. You must need a semi tractor to tow it. Thanks again.

[@davehammock5256]

Actually a F-350 , 450 or 550. Ram 3500 and up will pull it. Diesel power a must. Medium duty FL60 which is a Frieghtliner handles those quite well. My wife and I are looking into having a luxury coach built and truck to pull it. I’m leaning towards a FL60 crew cab to pull ours. Have a great day.

[@MarkSoltas]

This trailer is simply awesome. Looks like it is well built and the materials are top notch. Love the colors. Nice job!

[@donwat91]

I think I'd agree with the others . Should have just waited on the reveal. This is one huge 5er. I had the 5th wheel before going to a class A. Sometimes I miss the 5th Wheel but I'm very happy with my coach. Thanks for sharing

[@leonardnelson7596]

Does this have 4 or 6 point hydraulic leveling? Please let us know please an thank you! These fifth wheels are amazing! This is your first all the way to your 2nd, 3rd, 4th to your last all in one!!!!!! Thank you for making the best full time. Fifth wheel!!!!

[@O.G.BFrmDaWstSd]

The bathroom could’ve used dual sinks his/hers for sure. Also, my opinion but going down to a Queen Bed would make more room to feel as if it were a master bedroom. Lastly, the kitchen island looked fairly cheap, could use a better counter top. Beautiful 5th wheel!! That would be great to Full Time live in !!

[@rpotterflca]

Beautiful rig, and I love the paint on the side of the slides. Nice detail touch. However, I really don't understand the laundry in the master bedroom. Those things are annoying to hear, and in case of a gray tank overflow, it will flood the master bedroom. (I know this from experience when the washer flooded, ahem, twice.) Yes, you can monitor the gray tank easily, but mistakes happen. Also, why the choice of the Lippert levelers? Even in my Momentum, my whole rig shakes when the washer and dryer are going. Why not use the sturdier units that you see on Class A's or Super C's?

[@cg5675]

The kitchen sink fills first. We do not do laundry when we are in the room. The levelers are not Lippert they are Big Foot. We have 4 not 6 because they are not cheap lippert crap. Our frame has at least double the steel of your momentum. It hardly shakes at all.

[@rodleypumpkins4174]

I work and live in a camper biggest question I have is where are they gonna stay in this Most camp grounds have problems with anything bigger then 38ft and a lot of them don’t have 50 amp service. So that leaves what truck stops? Weird way to spend money.

[@ClassicMusicianChannel]

I believe they are professionals (accounting/auditing/nursing/etc.) that do a bit of traveling. Instead of paying for hotels, they drag the home around with them.

[@drifterchance7495]

Agreed I thought the same thing they would have to rent two lots to feet it in a campground

[@slash-kv1sc]

@@ClassicMusicianChannel but still where do they put it

[@azimuth361]

Professional Musicians. Actors. Plus, with a toy hauler this size, you can put a couple of bikes in the back. Park the land yacht in a luxury RV park and ride the bikes into the back country. Or take the truck. There's a lot of use for this.

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

Seriously, if the have the money to buy this custom rig you think they are going to stay in a public campground with the riff raff? There are plenty of RV spots that strictly cater to the wealthy. I got to stay in one once, was truly a 5 star rv park for the rich and famous.

What is the weight of a coach this size? Sorry if it was answered already. For some reason I can't see reply's to other comments.

[@rpotterflca]

Yes, would be nice to know the weight. However, if it has three 9k Dexter axles, and you use the formula of a 20% pin weight, I would guess that the max GVWR cannot exceed 33,750.

[@cg5675]

31K loaded.

[@rayc.1396]

Single spare tire?, stored inside to take up valuable space and how much you gotta remove when you need it? no shielding or sound dampening around the generator. How you going to keep it dry when you run threw a rain storm, really good looking area for 2 spare tires, also reduce pin weight. Excellent looking 5th wheel.

I agree I'm not a fan of the gen location either for several reasons. I would also be concerned about fumes seeping into cabin.

[@roydavis2242]

Just what states are you gonna tow a fifth wheel this long legally? The majority of states have overall length limits between 60-65 ft and many have trailer limits of 45 ft. Louisiana is the only state east of the Mississippi that allows 70 combined, but they have a trailer limit of 40 ft. When dealing with lengths, it doesn't matter what is legal in you home state once you leave that state, although I've not sure how tightly it is enforced in many states.

[@roostin]

The limits you are speaking of pertain to a unit being towed by a pickup truck in the video he clearly states the owner had ordered a Volvo which would be in the class 6-8 range allowing a trailer length of 53' across all of North America with no special permits or licensing

[@brandoncaldwell95]

This is ment for a tractor trailer type pull. I would be the idiot pulling it with a 1ton and no cares, but this is perfectly legal with a semi.

[@bflo716]

Roy Davis chances are a CDL with that Volvo truck would negate your entire comment...

[@rockyalvarez520]

19 states allow trailers larger than 45 feet

[@johnlonewolf9489]

How much does it cost

[@charlieodom9107]

John Lonewolf if you have to ask, then you can't afford it. Here is a hint: their base production models in this size go for like 300K and up.

[@curtisp9982]

What makes it that he probably couldn't afford it just because he asks how much. I want to know and I guarantee I can afford it.

[@WileE.Coyote]

Could we design / build a owner designed 53 foot 5th wheel trailer? W/ 4 axle air suspension?

[@brandoncaldwell95]

Brian Shull At that rate, you would require a semi. Then you might as well go spacecraft RV with a daycab semi. They push 57ft in length

[@rockyalvarez520]

you would have to pull it with a semi tractor. It would only be legal in 19 states. And most parks would not allow it at all

[@steveschlackman4503]

I have a few questions. What size truck is required to pull this unit? What type of license is required for the truck driver? Do your customers drive this trailer themselves? I recently saw a video showing a customer driving a brand new F250 pulling a large, also brand new, 5th wheel coach that jackknifed. There was some speculation that a F250 was underpowered for the load. I would be petrified to drive anything this big. I know that you do custom, but I am curious at what kind of price range your 5th wheel coaches are priced at.

[@jackiekraemer596]

Steve Schlackman this would require a cdl since it semi

[@thedestroyer3262]

This thing probably weighs upwards of 30k lbs empty so to safely pull it you would need s semi tractor imo.

[@brandoncaldwell95]

tractor trailer with class A. Nothing less.

[@thornsbj2]

Just the same as any other trailer with GVWR > 10k pounds. In TX, that would be a non-CDL class A driver’s license.

[@muellerpk]

This thing probably has a dry weight of low 25k lbs. loaded you would need like an f450 dually or more. a medium duty truck or a semi would be best.
