The Intelligent Fifth Wheel

INTRODUCTION

When our design team was creating Sanibel, we had a big advantage.

This advantage is called EXPERIENCE! Fortunately for Prime Time, several members of our management team have been directly involved over the years with several of the best selling, most popular fifth wheels in the industry. Brands that every experienced RV’er is familiar with. We were keenly aware of the pros, cons, weaknesses, and strengths of these brands. We knew how they were built and how they were used. These key Prime Time employees are fifth wheel experts!

However, we wanted to build a BETTER fifth wheel than what was currently available, so we talked to owners of these brands in the campgrounds, at rallies, and on the phone. We asked them how toimprove on their units. We asked them what they liked and didn’t like about their unit. We researched numerous owner forums looking for comments both good and bad. We brought competitors’ units to our facilities to make sure we avoided what was wrong and implemented what was right. Basically, we started from scratch with our thinking.

Combining Prime Time’s vast experience with our efforts at collecting owner feedback helped us create Sanibel ‐ a much smarter fifth wheel – a much better fifth wheel – THE INTELLIGENT FIFTH WHEEL!

This training manual will show you many of the details, features, and benefits of Sanibel. We think it’s the smartest fifth wheel ever built.
