Your Rig

[RVcrazed51]

I'd like to give a huge THANK YOU to Brad, the Moderator over the Truck Campers forum for his assistance with this thread.

Thanks also to RVcrazed51 for his request for this thread.

Post photos of your Fifth Wheel on this thread. Any photo with a 5er in it is allowable; any brand, any year.

This thread is generally for Fifth Wheel photos only. But feel free to post comments on posted photos.

Because this thread is very long, I will occasionally clean it up by removing the older posts that do not have Fifth Wheel photos and other off topic material. Also, please limit photo width to 640 pixels by using: width=640. Please do not post thumbnail size photos, they are just too small to see.

Register at photobucket.com (free), download your pictures (takes a while), hi-lite and copy the URL, then use the "image" icon to paste the photo URL.

Hi everybody, I'm looking to buy a fifth wheel, hopefully by the end of the year. And I was just wondering if some of you would care to post some pics of your fiver.

Here is my old goat. 2002 Ford F-350 Dually V-10 and 2005 Keystone Challenger 34TBH. They are both old but still going. Truck is not a race horse but it gets us there. She only has 38,000 miles on her so she still has some life left in her.

I couldn't remember if I had posted a pic of our new 5er so here it is.
It's 2021 Keystone Cougar T/V is a 2017 Ram 2500 6.7 Cummins.

Me and my wife are new to owning a camper, particularly a 5th wheel. This is my setup, 2012 Ram 2500 Power wagon, and the trailer we bought is a 1996 Gulfstream innsbruck. She's nothing fancy but for the price and how clean it is, we couldn't pass it up. Excited for our adventures in it with our boys.

Thanks folks.

Always bugs to work out with new rigs though. Fridge had been on gas for 20 hours since last evening and never cooled down. After the 20 hours the burner shut off. Back to the dealer Monday. Ruined a planned week long fall getaway.

After 8 RVs, this is my first Norcold fridge. Not a good first impression.

That is good to hear. 🙂 I know several friends who live full time in their RV and are only slightly younger than my wife and I (mid 80's) who have no back up plan nor any special funds set aside for one.

Although they spend most of their time in fairly inexpensive military campgrounds they still have to move now and then since the military does not allow one to spend a whole year in one place. Six months is the most that I am aware of. I really worry about what they are going to do when the time comes that they cannot physically accomplish all the tasks necessary to live in their RV.

Work2much,
Enjoy your new lifestyle! My advice would be to make sure you have a backup plan in place for when the time comes that you cannot continue the lifestyle. That time most likely will come eventually - sadly. 😞

No doubt. We are still pretty active and in good health in our mid 50's. The proceeds of our house sale will be set aside for whatever comes along and we are planning on buying or building another sticks and bricks at some point when we get older.

Thanks. 🙂
