5th Wheel or Tounge pull?
Why did you pick yours & what advantages do you see for one over the other? I'm thinking the 5th wheel might be more stable being its weight is over the axle? Might it be safer in the wind over ...

Interesting read. We've always had TTs and always had a good time. I will admit our last one was a beast to tow, Salem 312QBUD, TV-Ram 2500 w/ Cummins, but we did okay.
When we decided to buy a new rig we looked at everything, literally. We wanted a shorter rig so we could get into state parks, etc. In the end we decide to buy another TT, Arctic Fox 25Y, because we loved the floor plan. The salesman then says, "Have you seen the Fox Mountain 235RL fifth wheel?" Guess what, it's exactly the same floorplan as the AF 25Y but much taller inside, really feels a lot roomier. And here's the rub, because it's a fifth wheel our overall length is much better (shorter).
Anyway, we love the new trailer and it does pull much better but NOT like some say, "I can't even tell it's back there." Believe me, it's back there and I drive accordingly.
Happy trails.
