Thanks for all the replies folks. I cannot get a fifth wheeler as I do not have an appropriate tow vehicle for it. Plus, we do a lot of state park camping and want to do national parks. I don't want something as big as a fifth wheel.
We went tonight and looked at the one here local and talked with the salesman and sales manager this afternoon. We really like the ones we looked at and the people we dealt with so we will probably move in that direction.
Whaaaa!!! Who says that you have to get some monster 5er?
We got into it knowing that we prefer SPs, COEs & NPs. With that in mind we set our limit at 32' leaving a little wiggle room lengthwise for the right unit.
We wound up with a 34 by model number. Actual extended pin to bumper length is a little less than 36'. Can't say that we have never had a problem getting into SPs etc. Occasionally there is a problem. Most often sites big enough for us exist but they are occupied by class Bs, truck campers, class Cs, small trailers, even tenters. Most CGs seem to assign sites suitable to unit size but a few simply tell you to go & pick one.
that would be much to larges for camping on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Our TT is 30', and at our favorite BRP campground. There are only 4 sites it will fit in. I would like to shrink it to about 25 ft. that would be a lot better, and we would have much better choices. As it is now. we rarely get to camp on the BRP.
