Peterson's new Winslow fifth-wheel

With an eye toward the older buyer, Peterson Industries Inc., Smith Center, Kan., has added a 31-foot triple-slide fifth-wheel aimed at the full-time RVer to its Winslow by Excel lineup. ”They (typical buyers) are getting up in years and their competencies are dwindling a little bit,” said President Brian Tillett. ”They’ve already gone the 40-foot route and they don’t want to give up the lifestyle.” Boasting a thermal guarantee down to minus 10 degrees, Winslow offers 30 floorplans with amenities that include heated and enclosed underbellies, 6-foot 5-inch front bedroom ceilings, queen innerspring mattresses, 48-inch seated shower, solid wood cabinet doors, cedar-lined closets, solid-surface countertops, swivel recliners, hide-a-bed sofas and solid wood dinette tables. MSRP: $77,000.
