Description

Package Deal: SOLAR EQUIPED, Forest River Cardinal and GMC Truck: $77,000



A MUST READ: 2014 Forest River Cardinal 3030RS fifth wheel trailer designed for those who want to experience the ultimate in RV living. Stocked with matching pots, pans, dishes, drinkware, utensils, linens; and more. All pans work great with an induction cooktop. The unit is pet and smoker free.  Tow it with a 2005 GMC Sierra 3/4-ton diesel truck. Well maintained and ready to go!


SOLAR: I am very proud of the engineering of this solar system. Months of research went into the component selection and integration for this RV. I spared no expense. I was trained in microcircuitry, wiring, and have even rewired and remodeled a few houses in my day. The custom component layout brought compliments from the manufacturer representative. There were no mounts on the market that provided the stability and custom aerodynamic features I desired. So, I designed and conferred with a USAF project manager, before the final crafting of my panel mounting system. The solar system handles all of my power needs and can be expanded further, if desired. It is equipped with 5/175 watt solar panels, the best 3,000-amp inverter/charger on the market, and 4/100-amp hour batteries. No need to flip switches when you plug into shore power or any of that stuff. It is all automatic and I have an app to tell me my charging status.I get a kick out of it just simply plugging in my tools (or whatever) outdoors to have fun. If you don’t want to use propane, use an induction cooktop. It works great! 


The GMC has a Buck Stop bumper with ¼’ steel and wench, air horn, electric brake control for the fifth wheel along with a TST tire minder monitor for all 8 tires. The rear-view display attaches to the rear-view mirror for constant monitoring behind and on both sides of the fifth wheel while traveling. Adjustable air lift shocks were added for smoother riding and controlled at the visor. Edge revolution tuner manages the best engine performance while towing or ‘eco-mode’. Ride on leather seats, enjoy tinted windows and Bose speakers while driving to your next destination. Enclose your truck bed and locking tool chest with a BAK hard-bodied rolling tonneau cover. This customized setup has stye and strength! 


Inside, the Cardinal boasts a well-appointed living space with plenty of room to relax and entertain. The kitchen features modern appliances and ample storage, making meal preparation a breeze. The kitchen island rolls, put it how YOU want it! The cozy bedroom offers a comfortable retreat at the end of a long day of traveling and even has a 2” memory foam topper.  The full-sized closet is not just for weekends. The bathroom is equipped with all the essentials, ensuring that you can freshen up anytime.


Outside, two awnings provide shade on sunny days to relax under and entertain. The Outdoor TV gives you additional ways to view movies or regular programming and has ample storage space for your gear. This fifth wheel is perfect for extended road trips, weekend getaways or full time living.


Stand out feature: The rolling island provides flexibility and accessibility to the entire unit. Even when the slides are in you can utilize the kitchen, refrigerator, bathroom and bedroom. Truly a unique and convenient floor plan! There are 'slide in' pictures on request.
