A Primer on Fifth Wheels
Looking for a towable recreational vehicle that offers you homelike accommodations to make your traveling as comfortable as possible? Fifth wheels are just the ticket! These spacious towable RVs are great for full-timers, weekend warriors, family gatherings, and so much more. Read on to learn about fifth wheels so you can decide if they’re the right choice for you.
Definition
First, let’s outline what fifth wheels are. A fifth wheel is a towable RV that has to be hitched up to a towing vehicle to be transported from place to place. However, unlike other types of hitches, fifth wheels have a special hitch that comes up and over the rear of a truck bed to lock into a special coupling that’s installed there.
This anchor point creates a very stable connection that leads to a smoother towing experience, even though fifth wheels are often quite large. The only drawback is that you have to have a towing vehicle that’s suitable for them, which usually means owning a half-ton or larger pickup truck that can handle the coupling.
Features
Typically, fifth wheels have rather elaborate interiors, with spacious floor plans and even higher ceiling clearances, which can help your taller travelers feel more comfortable. These trailers are equipped with residential-style kitchen appliances, many sleeping spaces, entertainment centers, and other luxurious features that all add up to a superior traveling experience.
