I'm new to RVs and have a 5th wheel. So far, our 3 trips have been to RV parks, but I believe we'll enjoy boondocking even more.
However, after just 3 trips I'm concerned about the off-road ability of a 5th wheel versus a travel trailer. It doesn't take much variation in ground level between my truck and the 5th wheel to make me nervous about hitting my bed rails with the RV.
How do you all deal with that?

you are definitely on the right track to stay fairly small so you can still stay in national, state parks, etc. We went from a pop-up to a hybrid trailer to a 5th wheel. The only thing we missed was having such large, screen windows on the pop-up making one feel really outdoors. Our 5th wheel didn't have very large windows and we always ran a fantastic fan so we felt pretty closed in at night. However, we would never go back to a tent or pop-up. The 5th wheel feels more secure and sheltered in rain/rain. It's worth what you loose.

Thanks for your thoughts! I have no concerns about giving up tent camping as far as overall comfort goes. I just am not sure what kind of campsites I can get in to with a 28' FW. We are keeping it smallish, (but big enough for nice amenities) so that we will have a larger selection of campsites to choose from. Just hoping that we can still find some sites that give us some distance from our neighbors and some natural surroundings to enjoy. I still remember visiting my in-laws who were camping in their FW in Estes Park - but they were in an RV park and it felt so.....well....not like camping at all. I think they had a little bit of grass and a tree. I really appreciate the feedback I'm getting from you all who are living it. I'm still just trying to imagine it. Thanks!!:)
