Pass Go
Deceased
I want to drive around America for a while since I've been forced to retire. I've been weighing options, and now I need help. I've been looking at RV's of various sorts. I don't wanna rig Class A, B, or C, so that puts me into travel trailers and fifth wheels. I don't know anything about fifth wheels, but I'm going to look at one tomorrow. The guy has a Reese hitch that comes with, and the price is right.
I have a 305 C.I. Chevy 1500 short bed truck, and wonder if I have enough power. Is a fifth wheel easier to tow than a trailer? Advantages (Besides being able to unhook the fifth wheel and drive solo)? Disadvantages? The one I'm going to look at is 24' and weighs about a ton and a half.
I have a wiring harness hooked up to my truck, but have no idea if it will hook up to the fifth wheel to run the brakes. Is there a way I can look and tell?
I have a link to CL that I hope works:

Thanks for any info/advice you have!
