You're all right. I have 3 girls, 12, 8, and 5. Always Bikes, a dog, and firewood. As far as budget goes, I'd like to stay at or under about $40,000. I've seen some toy haulers I really like, but not for $60,000.
If you get a 5er where do you haul your dog? Firewood? Generator? Bikes?
We are also a family of 5 (kids 8, 5, 1) and a 90 lb dog. Dog rides in crate in PU, along with firewood and generator and bikes on the back of our TT... Couldn't figure out a way for us to haul a 5er.
If I get a Fiver, here is my thoughts. Not sure how good they are yet. For the dog I will probably have a low profile kennel built that is bed rail height, it can go between the hitch and tailgate. Firewood can be stacked between the hitch and my transfer flow. Generator will be in the front compartment of the fifth wheel.
I've towed my trailer for probably 25,000 miles or more and haven't had any issues, but after towing many goosenecks and a few fifth wheels I really want a fifth wheel because they always tow so much nicer.
