At the 2011 Detroit Fall RV Show: Dynamax Trilogy 3800 D3

One of the highlights of the 22nd Annual Detroit Fall Camper & RV Show was the Dynamax Trilogy, a prototype fifth wheel completed only two weeks before the show.

The Trilogy debuted for dealers a while back, but the Detroit show was its first time to be available for us regular folks. 

Dan Jaster of National RV Detroit took the time to give us a tour of the beautiful RV.Althogh the display unit was not for sale, the dealership was taking orders for the Trilogy 3800 D3 (one of three floor plans available) at a shade under $90,000.

What makes this prototype unique is it's the industry's first fifth-wheel to feature radius walls and roof. Similar to the curved walls of an Airstream, but not to the same extreme, the radius walls of the Trilogy are a nice touch to what can be a stale interior of many RVs. And unlike what you might find in an Airstream, where the radius ceilings are at head-level due to the interior ceiling height, the Trilogy's nearly 9-foot ceilings means the actual curvature of the walls are up and out of play.


The Trilogy also comes with three slides, an optional fireplace and can accommodate a queen- or king-size bed.

As you would expect from Dynamax, the Trilogy features all high-end, top-of-the-line features and amenities. Simply put, if you can find it in an upscale home, then you'll likely find it in a Dynamax - and the Trilogy was no exception. Large stainless steel side-by-side refrigerator. Solid Corian-style counters. Convection microwave. Dining table with four chairs, just like you'd find in your dining room back home. 

Superb inside and out, the Trilogy is worth a look, whether you're in the market for a luxury fifth wheel or you'd merely like to see what one of the undisputed leaders of this segment looks like.
