Looking for first fifth wheel needing advice

I'm looking to purchase a fifth wheel in the next few weeks. I have never owned one before but wanting to be able to take my family with me to my fishing tournaments. It will be just a weekend get away trailer so not looking for top of the line high end trailer. I do like the fiberglass siding rather than the alum siding. Looking for 26-30' and the best deal out there. Would like to buy new since never owned one not familiar with things to look for. I am in north Texas/southeastern ok area. Have a new ram 3500 srw and will be doing the gooseneck conversion because I pull gooseneck trailers for my work all the time can't put a fifth wheel back there. I also need input on if I could pull my 20' bass boat behind one? Thanks!

    Greetings!

    Check out the Keystone Cougar line. They are decent quality and are a good value. They have everything from bunkhouses to rear living room models and everything in between.

    Do you have the OEM gooseneck hitch or will you be adding one to your truck? If you have the Bulldog/Reese/hidden hitch, Curt, B&W then there are a lot of options.

    Some RV manufacturers will void the warranty if you use a gooseneck adaptor on your trailer. But there are other options to pull your fifth wheel.

    Thanks!
