I agree that no one should ever have a bad travel trailer towing experience. With rare exceptions, dealers do a terrible job of setting people up to tow. So people come to the forums looking for help.
Fifth wheels on the other hand are kind of idiot-proof, so they’re a good match for me. It’s really hard to set it up wrong.
Not enough bed rail clearance
Nose high
Light pin
High hitched
Forgetting to open tailgate
Forgetting to close tailgate
Just some of the non-idiot-proof issues with a 5th wheel
Seen them in CGs. read about them on here
Nothing is idiot-proof

5vr wheels tracking truck wheels :H
What type of hitch set up do you have?
King pin pivoting in the 5th wheel hitch
OR
a pivoting pin box such as Sidewinder/Revolution etc
My 5vr with standard hitch/pin box the 5vr wheels track INSIDE of truck wheels when making turns
