    Width of Columbus 320 RS

    I realize the width of the Columbus 320 RS is 100 inches wide, but I was wondering about the width of the front cap 30 inches back from the hitch pin. Our Columbus is off site and do not have access to it. Thanks to anyone who might have that info. Best,

    First trip in new Columbus 320RS

    We left on our first outing in our 2015 Columbus 320RS on Thursday, camped about 80 miles from home at the KOA in Wildwood, FL. The Columbus tows simply amazing with the Tri-Glide Air-Ride Lippert pin box. All of the chucking, jerking and bouncing is gone compared to our previous 5vr. Everything...

    New Columbus 3600TH

    I finally got my new 5th wheel toy hauler! :trink39: It has a few problems that were found either during the PDI or during the maiden voyage. I took it out for 4 day/3 nights to find everything wrong. There were a number of things that have to be fixed before the RV is usable. I was curious...

    jacking up Columbus 320

    We are seasonals at a resort and set-up this weekend. The unit is a little off side to side. I thought I was going to be able to live with it but I cannot. I am fully hooked up and do not want to move the unit. I have a 3 ton jack that I want to use to jack up one side of the unit to slide a...

    Ready to order a Columbus 325RL

    We currently have a 2011 Sabre 32 BHOK-6. Absolutely a wonderful fifth wheel. Love the outdoor kitchen. This was our first 5th wheel and hubby wanted a mid profile so it fit the bill perfectly. Columbus brand came around shortly after we purchased the Sabre. Fell in love with it at first...

    Columbus underbelly insulation

    Dealer had to remove under belly so Lippert could come repair slide out box. Once repairs we're complete. Dealer days have to wait to put back together until they can get a special suit because of insulation material is too hazardous. Anyone know what this material is? Thanks John

    Columbus toy hauler tires

    I know there is much debate and views on tires. Has anyone changed their tires on the columbus toy hauler? Mine had a blowout being delivered from factory to Florida. To me that is not a real good sign of the quality of tires they put on these things. I don't want a blowout and I am looking to...

    Strongly considering a Columbus 295 RL

    and would love current owners opinions of their trailer and suggestions on offered options. We've decided we'd like to stay in the under 35' range and came across the 295RL. We like the 45 degree TV in the living area so everyone can view the TV without too much turning of their head. We also...

    Towing a Columbus with a short bed F250

    I have ordered a 325rl and have a 2003 f250 super cab and I am wondering which 5th wheel to get. I have a concern of the turning radius and smacking my cab with the nose. I have been looking at the 15k super glide but is needed or just having a slider wheel just in case is enough? Is the nose...

    New Columbus Inspection Concern

    We are happy to have the 2014 Columbus RS 320 delivered last week. Upon inspecting it there is a discrepancy in the sealing on the back underside of the trailer. I will attach pics to show the curbside which is mostly sealed and the road side which is lacking when compared. We bought it from...

    Columbus

    I have racked my head on this til it's swollen. I don't want to stir up an argument this is for my information. I have been looking at 5ers and the more I read the more diluted the info becomes. It would appear the 75% of people tow over the weight ratings, is that a fair estimate. I took 10...

    What kind of water filter for the Columbus 320RS

    Anyone have this unit that can tell me about the built in filter? Does it come with the actual filter or do you have to buy one for it? If you do, what kind did you buy? Thanks!
