Going from travel trailer to fifth wheel soon

Would like to move to a fifth wheel. My tow vehicle is 2010 sierra 1500 engine 5.3 with tow package. I see there are alot fifth wheels out there that I can tow. Thinking of a Keystone cougar lite.

  • Watch the pin weight. Most everything you put in the 5er, adds to the pin weight.
  • Make sure you pick one with lots of storage as you will lose the use of your truck bed for transporting your camping equipment. When deciding on which 5er make sure you allow for the heavy weight of the 5er hitch.
  • You are going to take a beating from many here for even considering it. Follow SWD's advice.
