When it comes to luxurious camping in style, you won’t find many better options than a fifth wheel. These big towable rigs are filled with amenities galore, tons of interior space, comfortable sleeping berths and thoughtful details to make you feel right at home no matter how far away you really are.
Your local fifth wheel dealer is Broadmoor RV of Pasco, Washington. As such, we wanted to offer you a few pointers on choosing the perfect fifth wheel for you and your family! Let us know if you have any questions.
Size
The biggest asset that a fifth wheel provides is its sheer size. These are some of the largest recreational vehicles out there, with spacious living rooms, private master bedrooms, residential-style kitchens and tons of storage space. You might even find additional bathrooms or bedrooms on some models. When you’re camping with a big group, a fifth wheel can be a major asset because of how much extra room you have and how homelike it is!
Towing Practice
If you’ve towed a typical trailer before, you’re ahead of the game when it comes to a fifth wheel since you have some experience under your belt. A fifth wheel is often considered to be easier to tow than a bumper-pull hitch since its unique coupling offers you more stability in spite of its size.
You’ll still want to give yourself some time to practice, though. The coupling will take a few tries to get right, so make sure you’re familiar with that operation before you depart. You’ll also want to practice reversing, turning, braking and parking with your fifth wheel hitched up to your towing vehicle. This will help boost your confidence so you’ll be able to drive safely and comfortably with your fifth wheel in tow.
