We have a Durango, but I suspect the mattresses are similar. We bought 3 1/2 inch memory foam and put that over the standard mattress and it sleeps great. Probably as good as our mattress at home. You can find memory foam just about everywhere anymore. Good luck.

My Durango does that also. My fresh tank pretty much does the same thing. I've read of ways to "clean" the sensors, but none of those would work for a fresh tank. I'll keep a watch on your post to see if someone has a "magic" cure.

Don't know if our Durangos are the same (we have a 2012 325RL), but there are two connections in the basement that lead straight to the living room and bedroom. Don't have to mess with any of the splitters if you use those.

Satellite systems aren't company specific, they are satellite providers specific. Not knowing your specific satellite system, it "may" or may not be able to be switched out. I personally prefer dish, but if you don't care, the direct system works just fine.

I don't want to start any "weight police" threads here, there are plenty on other sites, but I'll also bet you will be way over on pin weight.
And, IMO you will have a lot of difficulty pulling almost any grade with your truck.
Just sayin'

Don't have a model number as the 5er is still in storage, but I did see a Dyson that looked just like ours at a Lowes.

My Durango also came with the rechargeable Dyson vacuum. It works great. Don't know how long it will last on a single charge as we've never run it down doing the entire 5th wheel.
It's a great choice.

Many newer Durangos are also wired for satellite, and those may not be connected. As for your specific issue with the booster, It's "I dunno" for me. Try the contact that spadoctor suggested.

Go to the website RV.net and search the 5th wheel topics. You'll spend the whole day reading about which LT tires are the best bet and any other issues like you inquired.

We have the best of both worlds. When we ordered our new Durango, we had the Winegard Travler put on. We always used to use a tripod and dish, so I take that with us just in case of trees or other obstacles. Love just having to push a button and bingo, TV is up and working.

Probably the same panel for several of the 5ers. Our Durango has the same panel, only one tank.

Contact KZ directly, they're pretty good about providing older manuals.

Thanks for all the advice. I went ahead and went with boards. I attached some rope to them so the splinters should not be a problem especially since the kids will be helping me. Waiting on purchasing some of the accessories. I went ahead and had them put on permanent bypass kit for the water heater and a freshwater pump kit to pump antifreeze in. Good idea on the permanent bypass kitAnother question - My camper does not have an dark water flush on it. The walk through guy recommended dumping a 10lb bag of ice in the toilet after you dump at the campsite. He said with the melting and it moving around in the tank, it cleans it. When you get home, use a 5gal bucket to dump it in to. He said this is the best way to clean it. What is your opinion? Mine does have a flush, but I've heard many say the ice thing works really good. In addition, this also does a good job of cleaning the level sensors. But I wouldn't empty it afterwards (see my answer below)Another question - During warm weather, do you recommend leaving the gray and black tanks completely dry or left some water in them? Any chemicals? I don't leave my tanks empty except when winterizing. In fact I continue to keep adding to them until they have to be emptied because they drain better when full anyway.Hopefully, with all the questions, I do not upset anyone. Question away, that's the only way you can learn. You know the old saying: the only dumb question is the one you don't ask.

About plastic stackers or boards. I've used both and both have pluses and minuses. I like the stackers in that they give you more options. To duplicate the boards, you'd have to carry a lot of boards and yes, they are heavier and take up more space. Having said that, I still take a couple boards. If I only need a little bit and a board fits the bill, I'll use boards because they are faster and simpler to use.
That probably didn't really answer your questions, but maybe gives you some idea.
On the accessory thing, you'll have to figure out which items are really worth it. If funds are no issue, you'll have lots more choices. The items that I find I'm really glad I got are a water restrictive device with gage that lets me know how much pressure is available and along with that a good water filter.
Ask specifics and I'm sure we'll all chime in on whether that's a "keeper" or "not worth it" item.

Don't have a Spree, have a Durango.
But, if it's like most KZs, you'll enjoy it!

One thing you can probably rely on is that KZ will take care of you. The more you cruise KZ associated websites is you realize that they take care of their customers.

Thanks for your help. This will come in handy when we start traveling again in a couple of days. Not sure where we will end up. If trailer is hooked up to truck for an overnight stay, sounds like we don't need any jacks as it will be pretty stable without them? You will want to put the jacks down as just being hooked up to the truck will allow way too much sway. Try it. When you first pull in, put the slides out and walk around. Yeah, I thought so. You'll want the jacks down.
