I will be in 60 days have the money (cash) to buy an F-350 king ranch loaded for 5th wheel towing and a as it's called a fiver, 5th wheel camper.
I am looking to get educated by those living the life. I will be making this my full time home, moving it around lets say quarterly.
I am looking for a 20+ year usage of it.
I will spend no more then 65k for it, new or a lightly used upgrade version over a 65k new.
So please, give me your knowledge. Best builts, amenities. Insurance, maintance issues, tips, tricks, whatever.
Could you share just what LDT will handle a 6K pin weight? Inquiring minds want to know.

BTW, we are in a 1998 NuWa Champagne 38', pin is about 3700 and tow with a FL60
Floor plans for hosting a 2nd couple, sleeping up to 4 people.
My truck will ((not)) be a short bed, rather a full 8ft dually with a 24k towing and 6k pin weight/payload.
So with much thanks, hit me like Neo in the Matrix.
