Your Fifth Wheel RV Buying Guide

Buying a fifth wheel can be a great investment for those looking to travel and camp in style and comfort. Fifth wheels tend to offer upgraded features and more amenities than other types of towable RVs. Here are some key factors to consider when shopping for a fifth wheel.

Size & Layout

Consider how many people will be traveling with you and what amenities are important to you. Look for a layout that offers enough sleeping space, storage, and living areas for your needs.

Towing Capacity

Make sure your vehicle has the towing capacity to safely tow the fifth wheel you are considering. Pay attention to the weight of the fifth wheel and consider factors like payload capacity and hitch weight.

Features & Amenities

Look for features that are important to you, such as a full kitchen, bathroom, entertainment system, and slide-outs for extra space. Consider options like outdoor kitchens, awnings, and leveling systems.

Quality & Durability

Research different brands and models to find a fifth wheel that is well-built and will last for years to come. Look for features like aluminum framing, fiberglass siding, and quality appliances.

Used vs. New

Decide if you want to buy a new or used fifth wheel. While a new fifth wheel may come with a warranty and the latest features, a used fifth wheel can be more affordable and still in great condition.
