01 What makes it unique
The 28BH is the entry point to Alliance’s mid-profile Avenue fifth wheel and the lightest plan in the line. It is a ‘BH’ bunkhouse with two entry doors, sleeping six on a single slide-out in a 32-foot-11 body — the layout for a family that wants a separate bunk space and a second door without stepping up to the heavier, longer Avenues. It sits on Alliance’s lighter Avenue chassis tier: a 10,495-pound GVWR against an 8,518-pound dry weight, the only profiled Avenue with a 10-cubic-foot refrigerator (the bigger plans carry 16) and a 12-foot-2 exterior height rather than the 13-foot-4 of the tall plans.
Every Avenue is 101-inch wide-body construction with Azdel composite sidewalls inside and out, a PVC roof with a lifetime warranty, the Performance Running Gear package and an OTG solar package with a 400-watt panel and a 40-amp MPPT controller; a single 13,500-BTU air conditioner is standard with a second and third available. Alliance publishes the 10,495-pound GVWR against the 8,518-pound dry weight, leaving a 1,977-pound cargo capacity and a 1,450-pound dry pin — the lightest pin in the line. At a starting MSRP around $75,000, with street pricing below placard, the 28BH is the family bunkhouse for buyers who want fifth-wheel space and a second bedroom door at the lightest weight Avenue offers, towable behind a properly rated three-quarter-ton truck.

03 The Avenue floorplan family
Avenue is Alliance RV's mid-profile fifth wheel — the residential fifth-wheel idea from the luxury Paradigm a step down in height, weight and price, and a cross-shop against Grand Design's Reflection, Keystone's Cougar and Jayco's Eagle. The 2026 line runs to nine floorplans; the six profiled in full are linked below and the three catalogued plans are shown muted. The 28BH on this page is highlighted.
| Floorplan | Nominal | Sleeps | Notable |
|---|---|---|---|
| 28BH | 32 ft | 6 | Bunkhouse, dual entry, lightest in line |
| 298RL | 34 ft | 4 | Rear living (lighter tier) |
| 33RKS | 34 ft | 4 | Rear kitchen, biggest cargo of its pair |
| 32RLS | 34 ft | 4 | Rear living, three slides |
| 35RKS | 36 ft | 6 | Rear kitchen, sleeps six |
| 332RL | 37 ft | 4 | Rear living (lighter tier) |
| 333BH | 38 ft | 4 | Bunkhouse (lighter tier) |
| 38DBL | 41 ft | 5 | Double/bunk, dual entry, sleeps five |
| 39MBR | 41 ft | 5 | Mid-bedroom, four slides, heaviest |
Avenue is Alliance RV's mid-profile fifth wheel — the residential fifth-wheel idea from the luxury Paradigm a step down in height, weight and price. The 2026 line runs to nine floorplans; the six broadest-appeal layouts are profiled here in full and the remaining three are catalogued from published specifications below. Every Avenue is 101-inch wide-body construction with Azdel composite sidewalls inside and out, a PVC roof with a lifetime warranty, a 16-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator (the lighter 28BH carries a 10-cubic-foot unit), Alliance's industry-leading tank sizes, the Performance Running Gear package and an OTG solar package with a 400-watt panel and a 40-amp MPPT controller; a second and third 13,500-BTU air conditioner and a king bed are standard on the regular trim, and a lighter Avenue All-Access value trim (single air conditioner, 200-watt solar, no standard king) is offered alongside it. Hitch weight, GVWR, dry weight and CCC are published per plan and each plan's dry weight plus CCC equals its GVWR exactly. Dry weight is a factory estimate; real loaded pin weights run higher — always weigh the loaded coach and confirm against your truck's payload and rear-axle ratings.
04 What owners & reviewers report
Dual-entry bunkhouse
A ‘BH’ bunkhouse with two doors and a dedicated bunk space, sleeping six — the family layout in the lightest Avenue body.
Lightest, shortest Avenue
At 32 feet 11 inches, an 8,518-pound dry weight and the line’s lightest 1,450-pound pin, it is the most maneuverable and truck-friendly plan in the range.
The lighter Avenue chassis tier
A 10,495-pound GVWR, the 10-cubic-foot refrigerator and the lower 12-foot-2 height place it on Avenue’s lighter tier rather than the tall 13-foot-4 plans.
Match a three-quarter-ton+ truck
A 10,495-pound-GVWR fifth wheel with a 1,450-pound pin — confirm a properly rated three-quarter-ton truck’s payload and rear-axle rating.
05 How it compares
Grand Design’s mid-profile Reflection — the direct half-ton-friendly fifth-wheel cross-shop.
Keystone’s mainstream Cougar — a mid-profile fifth wheel with comparable bunkhouse layouts.
The rear-living 32RLS — taller, heavier, three slides and a couples great room instead of a bunkhouse.
