smcrea...that choice is in my mind, a good one. Yea, a bit overkill for 7k lbs...but then once the kids are gone and its mama and yerself... a nice 35' 5th with all the luxuries is nice to have.. but given said 5th's wheel pin weight will likely be in the 2K+ range, you'll be so glad you went with a 3500.
It's all about the suspension and tires you put underneath it.

We thought about that as well! :-)
It could go either way.. If we become full or semi full timers then a nice 5th would be great!
Or if we don't and we just want to go and visit the kids somewhere then maybe a camper for the two of us.
Either way I think that we are good to go.
The biggest decision was short or long bed.. We chose Short, but long does have advantages. But IF we did get a camper then you can get them that are pretty tall and stick out at the back.. plenty big enough for the wife and I!
