How much should I look to NADA on pricing?
I don't quite understand NADA pricing. It only mentions retail. Does retail mean at a dealership? If a private seller, then should they be asking for retail pricing? I am looking at a 2012 ...

janegowest,
My post was not about the 5th wheel being white. It's about an having an enclosed trailer to keep all your extra stuff, clothes, and non-perishable food/beverages in during the hot months while you are living in the 5th wheel with what you labeled "not enough closets/storage", while you are working on your house. The very inexpensive storage trailer won't likely be either heated or have A/C. Please re-read my post!
About the 5th wheel:
Yes, if you live in a very hot area, then a white 5th wheel too will be your friend and much cooler in hot summer sun if it has a clean white roof and a white side on the sun side of the RV. A dark surface absorbs the sun's rays and heats the object while white and silver reflect the sun's rays keeping the object much cooler. Solar energy! Try walking barefoot on a sun drenched black asphalt road in summer and you'll get the message real quick. Then do the same on white concrete and report back. Maybe as simply as putting your hand on a black or dark painted vehicle sitting in the sun and then doing the same on a white vehicle. I won't have to tell you what the extreme difference will be.
