It seems as though all of the so-called Four-Seasons 5th Wheel manufacturers focus on the cold weather. I would like to know how any of them would fare in an extremely hot environment, like Phoenix, AZ during the summer (120 degrees)
If you've got some experience with living full time in your Fifth Wheel in the Phoenix and Mesa, AZ area, I would sure like to hear from you about what rig you have and how you coped with the extreme heat.
Thanks very much!
Frankly, I wouldn't do it. If you're in a metered site, you could easily run $400/month power bills. My step-daughter lives in a mobile home park, 14 x 60, and her power bill the last 2 months has been > $200, and that's (more or less) built for this use. Much better off in a park model or a straight mobile home and in a place that's got as much shade as possible. Hell, you'd likely be better off buying a condo somewhere, and saving your money to buy the FW of your dreams when you =do= retire. :-)
