Backing a FW into a tight camp site is intimidating.
I've found it's not so much getting the 5er in there, but making sure the front end swing of the truck doesn't take out campground signs, posts, or shrubs.
Our budget is going to put us at 40-50k.
That's not a big budget for a good quality unit, and quality usually comes with price. You could double that - but isn't that often how it works out?
Generators - do most FW's really have no generator?
No, they usually don't, but I'm sure it's an option in many.
Build quality - I was told (don't shoot the messenger) that despite price range, most FW's are built pretty much the same.
No, I don't agree with that. The 'lite' models will be pretty poor build quality.
