We’ll take you on a tour of our latest home on wheels, sharing the impressive specs, features, and what we love most about the cozy floorplan of our new RV. If you’re shopping, you’ll pick up some handy pro tips, too.
This newer mid-profile fifth wheel combines luxury, comfort, and practicality in a beautifully designed package. We love the modern amenities, bright and stylish interior. And it has all the features we really want and need.
While Tandara models will vary across trim levels, our unit came fully loaded, with both the luxury and four seasons packages. Being a 2021 model, it’s about 2.5 years old, and it is in excellent shape.
The Tandara 285RL measures 33 feet and 4 inches long, providing ample space for living and storage. Its dry weight (unloaded) is around 10,000 pounds, and the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) fully loaded is 13,655 pounds.
The Tandara features a 63-gallon freshwater tank, 90-gallon combined gray water tanks, and a 45-gallon black water tank. Outside, there are two 30lb propane tanks.
One of the most exciting aspects of the Tandara 285RL is its floor plan. It has two opposing slides in the rear living area, a central kitchen and dining area, and a private bedroom at the front.
The rig originally came with a king size bed, but the previous owners cut the bed platform down to accommodate a queen size mattress. We also happen to prefer a queen bed, as it gives us more space to walk around – and make – the bed.
