Okay thank you everyone! I will go the dually much to the chagrin of my wife. And yes I'd love to find a GM Exec for that friends and family discount.
Regarding the fiver and pulling the boat, this is not my first rodeo. I'm selling a 1994 Class A Monaco Crown Royal. The reason is because my wife and I have had to always travel separately as one of us drove the coach pulling the boat and another in the pickup. We always take the truck as we trailer the boat and also do not like being without wheels for that occasional run into to town etc.
The boats total weight is about 4000 Lbs and I'm being generous. And I am experienced at buying RV's and will literally drive to Elkhardt to find the right model and framework. This will not be a Jayco! Sorry Jayco owners but I've seen the factory. Nope, in this Fiver I want a generator built in, 100 fresh, 100 gray, 100 sewer, Residential fridge, Porcelain toilet, 6 point hydraulic landing system, minimum of 2 slides, exterior TV and Fridge. And I'd prefer a higher end unit. I'm not at all opposed to used if it's in stellar condition.
I really like this forum, thanks for all of the input. Now lets talk Fivers. What say you guys?
With the water and tank capacities your wanting it almost sounds like toy hauler specs. Those cap on a fifth wheel will really limit your choices if there are any at all. Oh yeah, make sure your hitch rating is enough to allow for your 5vr and your boat together.
