1. Get a Stable Towing Experience
Fifth wheels utilize a gooseneck hitching style. This gets attached inside the truck's bed and leads to some overlap between the tow vehicle and the RV. The end result? A much more stable towing experience, which is especially beneficial on windy days or winding roads.
2. Get More Space
Because the hitching style of fifth wheels is so stable, these models can be built larger in size. They can be longer and heavier than other towable RVs, which leads to many perks to the travel experience!
The various rooms will be bigger, which helps the fifth wheel feel more comfortable to spend time inside. Those who take longer trips will especially appreciate the extra comfort!
Fifth wheels also offer extra storage space. Closets, pantries, and so on will be able to fit more items. Bring along more supplies so you can be better prepared for whatever adventure comes your way!
3. Host a Large Group
Many fifth wheels offer a high number of sleeping spaces. They can accommodate larger groups of travelers, which is great for large families. It's also beneficial for those who want to bring friends or host visiting family members as well.
4. Get Great Value
Since fifth wheels are towable RVs, they do not come with their own engine (like you would find on motorhomes). This leads to great bang for your buck!
There isn't an expensive and complex engine included in the fifth wheel design, which helps keep the asking price much lower. This also leads to lower insurance costs and reduced maintenance costs. The longer you own the fifth wheel, the higher the savings becomes!
But fifth wheels still offer many of the perks of motorhomes, such as the spacious interiors and luxurious features. In other words, get a high level of comfort without having to spend as much money on an RV purchase.
5. Maintain Access to a Vehicle
When you arrive at the RV campground, you can disconnect the tow vehicle and the fifth wheel...then take the tow vehicle anywhere! It's much easier to drive a pickup truck into town to get groceries than to drive a massive motorhome.
