My friend has one although it is a Wilderness Advantage. Same floor plan with the front living room. He pulls it with a Dodge V10 Big Block.
He seems very happy with it and with Fleetwood overall.

Yes

I have seen a few Wilderness and Terry AX6 in Ca. where they are made. Mine was made on Oregon. I bought it in Az. in 2003 but it is a 2004 model.

Prowler upgrade

I have had spring problems at the 27 month age of my Prowler AX6.
I have change to 4,000 lb springs and 8,000 lb axles.
The frame has had no problems and the pin box frame is fine also.
The 5er has about 25,000 miles on it. The brakes are fine I hardly use them when pulling with my MDT, Jake brake,Alison 6 speed all down shifting together and slowing down the 31,000lbs very well.

Post Advertising

allegra: LOOKS like your post is advertising and nothing to do with Prowler Rregal AX6 post.
Is that called phishing or just SPAMM

Insulation

I starting to add insulation in all my cabnets outside walls, the same kind as used in RV windows which I also use. I think the windows have given us about 10deg.+ and the cabnets will add another 10deg.
We have a Pseto Heat Dish heater sold at Costco and used it for 3 years works very well uses 1/2 the power than Micowave.
The heater on just over medium setting gives us 70deg. in bedroom five feet from ceiling and 85deg. 18ins. from ceiling in living room.
Out side temp 35 to 42 deg. at night.
So with added insulation we could run heater at low to med setting and have the same or little less temp in 5er.
We have used the 5er for 3 years fulltime around the country and works very well as long as we stay in no less than 32 deg. temp.

Larry & Kathy plus Meeko who would love less than 32degs.
