The 5th Wheel RV
The main feature of the 5th wheel trailer is the way it is designed to be pulled by a truck. It has a goose neck hitch in the front and fits over the bed of the truck. The truck has the hitch anchored in the bed of the truck by bolts and can be removed it necessary. Usually there are pins that you can pull to remove the hitch. The interior has steps to enter the section above the hitch area which most designers place the bedroom. The 5th wheel trailer is very practical and has a shorter combined length including the truck and trailer than a comparable truck/travel trailer combo. Although there is more weight over the axel of the truck it is easier to haul than the travel trailer. It unit together is more stable, whereas the travel trailer requires more pulling power for the same load.

The fifth wheel type of trailer…
has been used in the trucking industry for almost 100 years because it is a safe way of carrying heavy loads. It’s safe because the hitch configuration allows the trailer to be attached over the truck’s rear wheels, and typically up to 20 percent of its hitch weight to be exerted on the front suspension of the towing vehicle. Because of its forgiving nature to road and driving conditions, commercial truckers use the fifth wheel hitch configuration to carry extremely heavy loads. A fifth wheel trailer will stick to the tow vehicle through thick and thin. In many adverse handling situations, a fifth wheel trailer will actually enhance the ability of the tow vehicle to stick to the road. Whether in tractor-trailer rigs or in travel trailers, the fifth wheel configuration is popular because of its safety and handling capabilities.
Fifth Wheels are the most popular form of towable campers and are very easy to tow. However, they are expensive, starting at around at $26,000 – $30,000. In fact, just like any other recreational vehicles, a fifth wheel trailer has its own set of pros and cons. And its major advantage is that fifth wheels are very easy to tow due to the gooseneck hitch. Moreover, this hitch provides better center of gravity and stability to such recreational vehicles.
Fifth wheels are also spacious and roomy inside. The interior of these towable campers has lots of room, providing enough space for everyone if the weather is inclement. Since fifth wheels are towable campers, you can detach them at your destination and use the towing vehicle for trips and excursions around the RV campground.
As already mentioned, one of the major disadvantages of fifth wheels are their costs. They are the most expensive towable campers, which make such recreational vehicles hardly affordable for entry level RVers. However, you may consider buying a used fifth wheel, as they will be cheaper than a new travel trailer.
The cost mentioned earlier in the post is just the price of the fifth wheel; you need to add the price of the towing vehicle as well if you don’t own one. These travel trailers require towing vehicles for housing the gooseneck hitch. And you need a heavy-duty truck, as most of the fifth wheel trailers are heavy. However, manufacturers are now offering lightweight fifth wheels, which can be towed by smaller trucks.
Such travel trailers come with bi-level design and have interior steps leading to master bedroom, which generally sits over the towing vehicle’s bed. Some people do not like such interior design and steps. If they are a problem for you too, you may consider buying a motorized RV rather than opting for a fifth wheel.
There are mainly two types of recreational vehicles – motorized RVs and towable RVs. The motorized recreational vehicles are ass A, Class B, and Class C motorhomes, whereas fifth wheels fall under the category of towable campers. In fact, fifth wheel trailers are most popular towable campers and are most easy to tow. Such travel trailers have various distinguishing features including its hitch and the way it hooks up to the towing vehicle. These recreational vehicles come with a gooseneck hitch, hooking into the bed of the towing vehicle; thus, providing better stability. And it is due to this better center of gravity that fifth wheels do not have the problem of swaying back and forth while towing. However, you need a heavier duty truck to tow a fifth wheel.
Apart from being stable, fifth wheel trailers are one of the most luxurious towable campers. All these factors combined make fifth wheels the most expensive campers. These recreational vehicles also include an array of features, including:
Crown molding
Full size appliances
Slideout kitchen pantry
Surround sound entertainment systems

Electric fireplace
Full sized shower stall with glass doors

Microwave

Fifth wheel travel trailers come in various lengths and size, ranging from 22 feet and to 40 feet. The 32, 34, and the 36 foot 5th wheels are most popular sizes and almost such recreational vehicles offer optional floor plans. Slideouts are quite popular among RVers and are mostly used in dining and living room area. Some also used in the master bedroom. Some fifth wheels also come with multiple slideouts; however, the add weight to your travel trailer.
