It all depends on your situation. The fiver is the best bang for the buck IF you already have a 1 ton pickup. The MH is much better on the road.
For us, we needed a way for the DW to sleep enroute. You can't do that safely with a fiver, since they have no crash protection.
Examine your personal situation, how you will use it, how comfortable you are with a complicated machine. If possible, go to an RV show and look at the various units.
Our first RV was bought new so it would have a warranty. Now that I'm comfortable working on things, I will never buy new again. The initial owner takes a huge hit on depreciation.
