Fifth Wheels - Fair & Balanced Ratings!

Given the rising cost of gasoline, fifth wheels and travel trailers are rapidly increasing in market share. RV manufacturers have responded to this shift in consumer demand by increasing the luxury appointments in many of their fifth wheel models, as the emphasis shifts away from larger Class A motorhomes. Fifth wheel towable trailers are similar to larger travel trailers, but they have an extension on the front of the unit that extends over the tow vehicle and a horizontal plate that looks like a wheel (hence the name "fifth wheel" that rests on the tow vehicle for support.

This hitch arrangement requires special equipment on the tow vehicle. Typically, full-size pickup trucks serve as tow-vehicles for fifth wheels and are outfitted with a fifth wheel receiver. The hitch arrangement makes towing easier by placing the trailer load in the center of the truck distributing the weight to all of the truck tires instead of behind it. A fifth wheel trailer is equipped and outfitted with the same amenities as the conventional travel trailer and in some cases a deluxe motor home. A fifth wheel trailer can be unhitched at your destination so that you can use you tow vehicle for running local errands and sightseeing.

FREE GUIDE - Learn How to Spot a Well-Built RV A common mistake with most new RV buyers is that the floor plan is the most important aspect in their RV purchase. It is estimated that over 90% of new RV buyers focus more on floor plans than anything else. In contrast, most experienced or educated RV buyers focus on the chassis or frame, drive train, engine, suspension and exterior construction when selecting a particular RV model. Bottom line - What’s underneath your motorhome, trailer or fifth wheel is the most important aspect and should take top priority in your decision process. Focusing on these important features will ultimately determine how satisfied you are with your purchase.
