Compare and Contrast TT's and 5er's
I have towed Travel Trailers for over 40 years and just switched to a 5th wheel for the first time. Everyone Camping World kept telling me that I will love the 5th wheel because it is so much easier ...

A 5th wheel does tow better hands down. You end up wasting a lot of storage in your pickup bed though, if that matters to you.
My brother has a 5th wheel and it takes about the same amount of time to unhook as my bumper pull. I suppose that all depends on what type of weight distribution hitch you have.
Yep but you gain it back in the basement of the 5er! I feel that is far better as most of what you load in the bed of the TV is camping stuff anyway, so with a 5er is already packed! :B
That is why we have a shortest time of deciding in the morning of a work day, to head out that evening of one hour and fifteen minutes.
That is from me leaving work, stopping at the house airing up TV tires, putting hitch in bed, loading DW and two dogs and their bed, and tote of food in the TV. Driving to storage yard, putting food in Refer, starting refer, hitching up 5er, and leaving storage yard.
