Considering upgrading in the next couple of years and trying to decide between a 5th wheel and tow a small trailer behind (ATV's/motorcycle, etc) or just to get a toyhauler.
Are all 5's capable of doing this, or are there some particular brands or models that are better suited for this task that have a more robust frame, axle set-up, etc?
What questions/info should I be seeking from the manufacturers?
If I do choose a toyhauler, how do most people transport their toys to the play area if it's not immediately accessible to the campground, or if it's a vehicle than can't be legally driven on the roads?
NOT ALL 5r's are equipped to tow a trailer..
Mine came with a receiver hitch that has a 300# tongue capacity, and a 3000# towing capacity.. Each manufacturer will be different, so some homework is in order..
