fifth wheel all the way.
there is a difference between tt and 5er tow cap. 5er is larger.
with a tt, you must buy a bunch of stabilizing gear to even get to half as stable as a 5er right off the lot. read the GCVW rating on your truck all are different.
a tt sits lower than any 5er will. 5ers do sit much higher than any tt will.
in most conditions a 5er is more stable than a tt except in a 90 deg cross wind. wall size there. (even a extra legal loaded lowboy commercial truck can be blown over).
a 5er gets you more bang for the buck. including inside space.
better built 5rs have far stronger frames than any tt.
tt or 5er the cheap ones are well... cheap.
5er you lose pu bed storage. you gain hidden storage in the coach. tt no in coach storage.
5ers do cost more than the avg tt, for a reason.
search the web, go to dealers lots and walk through a lot of coaches.
i am going to buy a rear kitchen montana. seeing on line thought gag. but in real life i love it.
spend a year just looking.
used... someone else took the cash hit. seller hiding problems?
new you get all the problems that are unknown. and get a tax hit. (yes i will buy new).
also look into state tax and reg. set your domicile to that state for a smaller tax hit. might even save big on the sales price?
no mater your choice just get out there and enjoy life.
