Hello
My family and I are considering taking this up. We have an 4x4 Diesel Excursion and are considering trading it for a 4x4 crew cab 3/4 or 1 ton. From what I have heard 5th wheel are much better, and they seem to be more used ones out there. My wife and I have some wonderings...
1. What is the insurance like?
2. There are a couple places around here that store them for you and rent them out to the public for weekend or longer trips. What type of experiences have others had with these type of places? Seems to me a good way to have your RV stored, kept up, and maybe make some money back. I know there would be the risk of damage, and abuse, smokers, pets, etc... Is this a good idea with rare problems, or something to stay away from?
3. What type of upkeep costs, etc are there?
4. We are thinking something around 5 or so years old in good/better condition for our first. Don't want to buy new.
Thanks, Tony
