Been pulling bumper pull and goosenecks for 35+ years. The gooseneck/fiver doesn't track the truck as well so you have to make your turns different. Fiver is easier to hitch and unhitch if your travel trailer has an Equalizer type hitch.
Gooseneck/fiver pull better with way less sway.
Main problem with backing a fiver is the sheer size of the RV, they are wider and taller than travel trailers.
I would never pull a 35' bumper pull across West Texas, NM or Colorado. Even with an Equalizer hitch the wind is likely to give you fits.
