Ok, I'm looking for my first fifth wheel.
I plan to full time in it for a couple years while the housing market is in turmoil and to get some return on my investment instead of just throwing away money on rent.
Great, welcome the world of RVs you say. One annoying little detail though... what size to get.
I could get a 33ft or less model and get buy. If it isn't warm enough I have a place to park it during the coldest months. The price is certainly attractive and the thought of having an RV better suited to boondocking in tight spaces is appealing down the road.
But the more I look at full timing and staying in the RV year round, the more I am considering something closer to 40ft and then staying in it longer. That could interfere with my house buying plans.
And of coarse that leaves a compromise somewhere in the middle which may or may not work well for full time and won't fit in tight camping spaces any better than the 40 footer.
So I thought I'd ask owners about the subject.
What is the smallest 5er you have full timed in, for how long, and what was the experience like? Any comments that would be helpful is appreciated.
