Lantley - thank you for your response. That is the kind of meaningful, well thought out input I've been looking for. I'm an older guy and I have to admit that I like the larger, nicer, more comfortable layout of the 5th wheels. After a day or two of thinking about it, I think I'll go for the larger 5th wheel. The kids will grow out of the camping thing soon, but I think I'll always enjoy the comfort and extra space of a larger 5th wheel. We'll just have to plan our trips more carefully and select locations that will accommodate our size.
Thanks again...
