Fifth wheel trailers that share features with the Cardinal 26RD, like front bedroom, rear window and north south bed.
The 26RD flips the typical fifth wheel layout by putting the King bed up front and the social space in the rear, where a U-shaped dinette anchors a kitchen with a farmhouse sink, gas cooktop, and a full 10.7 cu ft 12V refrigerator. The electric fireplace with thermostat and remote adds a genuinely cozy touch, and the on-demand tankless water heater means you're not rationing hot showers. Forest River builds the Cardinal line with vacuum-bonded aluminum structure and residential fiberglass insulation throughout. Owners consistently note it handles cold winters well and tows comfortably behind a half-ton. Practical details like huge lift-up booth dinette storage, massive pass-through storage, and washer/dryer prep make it easy to actually live in.
