There are some nice shorter fifth wheels on the market. Northwood mfg has several under 30 feet. Just be aware in the shorter lengths you will loose things like, decent closet and storage space, washer/dryer space, and generally a way to be apart. The majority of full timers end up at least 35 feet of length whether a MH or towable of some sort. Full timing is NOT weekending any more. You need room to live comfortably for a long time. That means enough room to be seperated from your partner once in a while, do laundry, cook a decent meal, well,,,,, generally live life. Following the wun does not automatically guarantee you will always have dry sunny days with temps between 75 and 85 degrees. There will be days of rain and colder weather where you will be cooped up together. On those sorts of days you will wish you had twice as much room.
Bottom line, forget past RV experiences and try to figure out how much room you need for every day living. 350SQFT is pretty minimum for most folks. Once you have size nailed down, pick the floor plan that suits your desires the best. Then amenities like bathroom layout, bed size, twins, queen or king. Then colors, then brands. After all that and with the trailers GVWR in hand start truck homework. Then start shopping. Remember, ALL SALESMEN LIE!
