Fifth Wheel Rv With No Carpet On The Slides

Replacing the carpet in your rv can help update its style and decor as well as the comfort.

Fifth wheel rv with no carpet on the slides.

If left unattended with the slides extended in my opinion the majority of slideouts will experience water damage. Of all the rvs i ve seen rarely does the carpet match the rest of the interior decor. I have a 99 jayco eagle lite 5ver with no slide at about 4800 lbs. At some point all you can do is replace the carpet.

You re going to tell me slideouts are prone to water leaks and i ll tell you you re 100 percent correct. They got away from the lighter fifth wheels for a while but have come out with a new 23 5ver with slide that is pretty lite not sure of the of actual weight. The carpet came up pretty easily as it was only attached with tiny staples and most just pulled straight out with the carpet. The slide carpet is mostly covered by the sofa and dining table so never walked on and the bedroom is a no go zone for doggies and shoes.

Slides have done more to destroy the structural integrity of rvs than any other single design change in recent memory. Fortunately most newer rvs have little or no carpet in other words the industry appears to have gotten the message. Late 90 s and early 2000 jaycos have some good options for your situation. Carpeting can get beat up during your travels as you probably have tracked in mud muck and grime at one point or another and there are only so many times that you can clean it before it just starts to disintegrate.
