Our 5th wheel is just over 13 ft tall, hitched to the truck. Which is great for me as I like to be able to stand up at the foot of the upper bed in the morning to get dressed. I am 6" 4' tall and it works great for me. We have a queen bed up, the sofa makes a queen, very uncomfortable so great for sleeping guests (they leave after a night or two at the most) LOL and a set of bunks in a slide out room. Just perfect for our 9 and 11 year old grandsons when they go with us. Most trips when it is just the wife and I, we use out truck camper, especially for long trips or when we want to tow our Jeep with us to run the mountain trails. This combo works for us at this stage of our lives. In the past, Class As have worked best, a couple of Class Cs (with bunks) when our daughters were young, a popup when $$$ were a bit short, a couple of 5th wheels for destination camping. For living space for the most bang for the buck, a 5th wheel is hard to beat for most people. I see full timers parked for 6 months at a time in a half million dollar Class A, never turning a wheel and it makes me wonder if they wouldn't be happier in a trailer if all they are going to do is park.
