Having owned several fifth wheels, a 35' gas class A and a 39' diesel pusher I will say our current rig is the easiest to drive and handle of anything we have ever owned. Our dp wasn't bad handling but there would still be some pushing in stiff winds. The gas was a nightmare we only kept for 2 years. I will say if your friend had a 42 foot tag axle dp you are talking a whole different animal and you would have posted a different story. They do drive nice. Our friends have 40 foot Entegra, not a tag, and it drives like a dream. It has a tv mid coach, up front above the dash, bedroom and outside so choose your viewing angle. The principle reason we went back to a fifth wheel instead another dp was cost. A very nice truck and a very nice fifth wheel, new, will be somewhat less than a nice, mid tier dp. Leaves us with more funds for traveling.
