Hi everyone. I'm new to Rv's and wanted to know if its a nightmare dealing with bondocking a fifth wheel? im planning on like a 19-21 ft one, nothing too big, and just a v6 manual tranny pickup to tow it....im hoping anyone here can point me some info on what its like parking on a street with it? also, can i deattach it from my truck and park it alone somewhere? I've camped in Vans before and got away pretty well with always parking it for free...but, with an RV, i feel I'll be harrassed more by cops.

It will all depend on your local CC&Rs, city ordinances and HOA rules. My city just passed a new parking ordinance that now restricts on-street parking to 72 hours for all vehicles. I have pretty good neighbors, so don't think they'll turn me in for my FW for a day or two, especially as they have cars on the street, as do most all of us.
