Turn Tec Engineering and Front Cap Chaparral prides itself on the best towability in class. With a chamfered frame and aggressive cap design, the Chaparral is able to achieve an industry leading 90° turning radius. This incredible maneuverability is combined with one of the most aerodynamic cap designs ever found on a fifth wheel. Finally, the front of our units stand out among the competition because of their white color which won’t fade over time.

Azdel Sidewalls The delamination of a sidewall can be a big headache for RVers and this is why we have incorporated a material which virtually eliminates the problem. This is why we back all of our fiberglass sidewalls with Azdel panels, which are impervious to moisture and much lighter than wood. This combination is then vacuum bonded to the aluminum frame and block foam insulation. All of this comprises a sidewall which is one of the strongest and lightest in the industry.

50% LIGHTER THAN WOOD IMPERVIOUS TO WATER = NO DE-LAM ALUMINUM FRAMED & VACUUM BONDED

Pass Through Storage Chaparral has deliberately designed a pass through storage which serves many purposes. First, it is the largest square footage ever found on a mid-profile Chaparral and is completely void of any black pipes. It also utilizes an oversized water management panel which places most maintenance functions in one convenient location. Next, we have included a 110v outlet and cable hookup for use with the TV bracket found on the sidewall. Finally, we are one of the few units which insulate their bed/bath deck.

One Touch LED Electric Awning An awning is one of most important features on a RV, it allows customers the ability to spend time outdoors without dealing with the elements. This reason is why we made this area easy-to-use and filled with modern amenities. Our electric awning requires users to only have to press one button to fully extend and retract. Additionally, our customers can enjoy a late night under the awning with a white LED strip or watch their favorite team with our unique outside TV bracket with all-weather speakers.

Dexter Axles and Suspension Every customer wants to feel safe when towing a fifth wheel and we taken steps to ensure this. We have equipped our Chaparrals with Dexter axles and suspension systems. Dexter is a world renowned name in trailer axles with fantastic service to boot. We utilize their 7000lb axle on three of our larger models and the 5200lb on all of the rest. The E-Z Flex suspension system, standard on all Chaparrals and optional on our Lite floorplans, absorbs road shock and allows for smoother towing.

450lb Bike Rack Storage is an important issue for any RV buyer and we have worked to make sure our customers have plenty of storage opportunities. This includes our 450lb bike rack located on the rear bumper. The removable bike rack allows campers to strap down an extra cooler or bring the bikes for a fun family activity. These are the little things which Chaparral consistently does to ensure our campers have a great experience.

LED Lighting LED lighting is the way of the future and that is why it is found in the Coachmen Chaparral. Not only are LEDs brighter than their incandescent counterparts, but they also draw less power from the battery. The Chaparral features LED lighting in all rooms, closets and pantries. Finally, the Chaparral utilizes attractive puck lighting which gives the coach a much more residential feel.

New Window Treatments The standard for RV decor has been a hard, stationary valence with solid legs. This look is no longer found in residential homes and will not be found in a Chaparral. We now use all fabric valences and legs which are easily removable and not made with any wood backing. This way customers can replace them if they want a change, and if they get dirty the curtains are easily washable.

80” Sofa and Tri-Fold Bed The rear sofa on a Coachmen Chaparral redefines what an RVer should expect out of this piece of furniture. Long enough to stretch out and comfortable enough to sleep on, this 80” sofa is an afternoon nap waiting to happen. This sofa also converts into a near King size bed with a memory foam mattress. Finally, on either side of the sofa is an end table with cup holders and an easily accessible outlet.

Large Rear Windows Most manufacturers will skimp in this location and place a skinny, stationary window. We have rejected this standard and placed large, functional windows here instead. This allows a customer to open up both windows and get a nice breeze across the rear of the coach. It also gives campers a better view of their favorite campsite.

Updated Bathroom A large and functional bathroom adds tremendous value to a home and we have applied this concept to the Chaparral. Our bathroom includes a walk-in shower with seat and sliding glass doors, linen closet with extra deep storage, large stonecast sink and a residential medicine cabinet with lots of storage. Finally, the new skylight allows in much more natural light.

Serta Residential Queen Bed A bed can make a difference between a good day and a bad day and this is why we have spared no expense when it comes to the Chaparral. We do so by using one of the most recognizable names in mattresses, Serta. Also, the Chaparral does not utilize a standard RV-size mattress, but instead opts for the full 60” x 80” version found in homes across the country. Additionally, certain floorplans will offer a larger Serta king size bed. These differences are what allows Chaparral to stand apart from the crowd.

or windows

o LP test – ensures no leaks in LP tanks, stove in kitchen, water

heater or furnace
