I sent a PM so that we won't hijack this thread. ☺️
And I probably wouldn't like what either of you do. That is the reason that the US market for RVs has so many brands and models. When our boys were growing up in Wyoming, we had a pop-up that we considered to be luxurious! It had a 15 gallon water tank, a hand water pump, a propane capable refrigerator, and lots of storage. We towed it with a 4X4 Dodge Ramcharger and did most of our camping in forest service campgrounds that were far off of the paved roads. We usually stayed where there was an outhouse (Pam sometimes insisted) but occasionally went farther out where we just found a proper bush and dug a pit. It was really great when the campground had both a toilet and a well with a hand pump! We thought that we were into the backcountry until we visited bruce-t in Australia where they laugh at what we think are boondocks! But lifestyles change and today we do not do any dry camping, even in a parking lot.
What is your target height for your 5th wheel plate and which hitch are you installing? I am about to install a Trailer Saver TSLB. My 5th wheel king ping level sits at 48”.
