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.
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.

As a "million mile trucker" (assuming that means HDT trucker), before you purchase that King Ranch....check out
Escapees HDT forumLots of full-timer & part-timers who have discovered the "dark side" for towing whatever they want.
BTW - you can find a really nice used HDT - and have lots of $$$ left
to apply to that trailer purchase!
Bonus - In your state (TX) an HDT can be registered as a Motor Home
