Thanks a lot for your input. I'd like to stay below $50K for a later model used unit. I'd like to stay in the 2-4 year old range. I have thought about park models, but they don't seem to have the space that a fiver, with 3-4 slides may have. I may also change my mind and upgrade my truck so I can drag the thing abound. If the trailer is idle for 6-7 months a year, I plan to put a cover on it, so I'm not too concerned about the rubber roof.
When I was lurking on the motor home forum a couple of years ago, most of the folks seemed to think Newmar, Tiffen and Winnebago offered the best quality overall, unless you got into the Prevost style models. That's the kind of info I'm looking for about fifth wheels.
Again, thanks for your input and I'm still looking for advise. To me, it's a big purchase, and I want some background going in.
