I partially agree. The wife also had a big say with the truck. It had to be one that did not require a step stool to get in and did not require a kidney belt while running empty.

When Mother is happy everyone may be happy but if Mother is not happy no one is happy.

nope,Im the one driving my truck when we arent camping. Shes in the PASSENGER seat when IM pulling the camper so my wife had no say in the truck that is mine.I had no say in her vehicle.If the wife isnt happy too bad.Been married over 20yrs.Trailer was combined decision but the line has to be drawn somewhere or you might as well cut your balls off and hand em to her.

And if I called the wife mother she would not be happy, she is the wife or hey you but not mother.

OUCH!!! I've been married 44 years this coming Thursday and we make joint decisions. We both picked out the 5er, then we both looked at trucks...now I did take the lead on the truck, knowing what I needed, as far as how much we spent for the truck, then a joint decision.

The wife has actually taken the wheel when towing at times, (on Interstate) and does a pretty doggone good job of towing I might add. I did have say in her vehicle, we discussed what she wanted and came to a mutual agreement on again, how much to spend. So she drives a 2014 Jeep Compass 4X4 Limited and I drive the truck, but we've both also driven each others vehicles also.....

It's worked for us and I'm still fully intact of all my components...probably why it's lasted as long as it has:)

x2. I could care less what my wife thinks about my truck. As a matter of fact she hates to drive it. But she loves it when I'm driving with the 5'er behind. Last time she drove it she wacked some guys mirror with mine.

New Horizons, Spacecraft, Continental Coach for the trailer, Volvo, Pete, KW or Freightliner for the truck.

Yes.

Exactly! The best is the one you can afford and afford the TV to pull it!

[GON2SKI]

WAYYYYYYYYY too many variables and not enough information. Artic Fox, DRV (if they make one that small), Carriage, gee, quite a few....how deep is your pocket book..

Depending on the GVW of the 5er' that you want and can afford, THEN you look for the correct truck to tow it with..Ford, Chevy or Ram, take your pick...gas or diesel....take your pick, just make sure it has enough GCWR and RAWR to tow the 5er and carry the pin weight, people, pets and whatever else you want to put into the truck.

Not enough information from you to form much of an opinion...

One post on July 26th, then other post of "jacks are down":h..ok...

I'll let you know in about 2025. Not enough information until then.

Best is a used one, same for the truck. In five years you will figure out what is best for you and trade up.
