Part of the reason I am even considering a fifth wheel is for the ease of hook up..(versus a TT)
I've read this a 100 times on this forum that TT are hard to hitch up. I don't get it? So much in fact that the last 3 times I hitched upi my TT, I got out a stop watch and timed myself. It took me less than 3 minutes to hitch up and go.
Line up the TV, reverse, drop the TT, hook up chains/WDH/electrical and go. It takes me 2 shots to line up the TV using the side mirrors.
Am I missing something here? Why do so many people say it's so difficult?
BTW - back to original discussion; I prefer TT over 5vers for the following:
1 - I don't need the space - a 24ft TT is perfect for the wife and me
2 - I prefer the "light" weight of the TT - makes it easier to tow
(accelerating/hills/rural roads etc)
3 - I can get into some pretty tight/desolate areas
4 - storage - less space required and shorter
5 - lots of places I go to have a 25ft limit on TTs
X2. I don't get it either and it takes me the same amount of time, 3 to 5 minutes to go. I've read some on here take 45 minutes! What the?
I have a TT but I like the layouts of a 5er better. I don't know what I will get next. More than likely a TT because I have a cap on my truck 24 hours a day.
