Fifth Wheel Trailers For Universal Living

By Tanisha Berg


Thousands of design choices are available. The first option to consider is whether you want to consider 30 or 50 amp fifth wheel trailers. More amperage means you can run more things at the same time. An example would be using the air conditioner, microwave, and blow dryer at the same time. Single or multiple slide outs makes a difference in how big the rooms are. Some have arctic packages while others come with a power or manual awning.

One design changes the name of the home on wheels. When the trailer has a hitch on one side and a ramp on the back end of it, they are called toy haulers. Toy haulers give you the freedom to load toys such as ATVs, motorcycles, snow mobiles, and scooters.

Because the home is mobile, everything is small and compact, including appliances and electronics. The microwave is large enough to warm up one meal and the oven has one or two very small racks. A cake can be baked in the oven but will also need to be very small. The range hood is a little bit bigger than the microwave above.

Most would like to downsize and choose a fifth wheel in doing so. Downsizing is done because the family is smaller or the price is much more feasible. The price of a fifth wheel is much more economical than an apartment home. In addition, most apartments or rentals do not have peace and quiet or a yard. RV parks can offer free amenities such as internet, cable, water, and sewage, which in turn alleviates expenses.

Liquid propane can have its advantages because it is mobile and easily refilled. The disadvantage is on size and how often the tank needs to be refilled. In the winter the fifth wheeler can use an extensive amount of liquid propane. Propane is already used for heating the water, stove, and oven on a daily basis. In the winter additional usage is for keeping the home warm and comfortable.

The second downside is being able to pull the home with a full sized vehicle. The truck must be of size and weight to pull a load of this magnitude. This is not an issue when one has the automobile before he or she purchases the trailer. On the other hand, purchasing a trailer without a vehicle does not mean a request for assistance is impossible. Renting a vehicle for pulling is another way to pull the home.

Since this home pulls very well, it is ideal for traveling to any location. When moving from one place to another, little is needed to connect and detach from the ground. If the home has slide outs, the flip of a switch easily brings them in for easy roaming. Several locations have RV parks specifically made for a portable trailer. These trailers are also taken to areas where tents are allowed and used in a similar fashion.

Class A trailers can be driven rather than pulled; however, comes with all the added upkeep of a vehicle. A class A is not as cost efficient as the fifth wheel. The lack of motor and other vehicle maintenance eliminates the added expense. In addition, eliminates the situation where the home is immovable because the automotive does not work.
