RE: 5th Wheel vs. Gooseneck

You can put a goose neck hitch in the bed and use a hitch on it like the b&w companion or an Anderson. Most rv pin boxes aren’t strong enough for a goose neck adapter and manufacturer warranties won’t support it.

RE: Pulled to the left when being passed by Big Rigs

A Hensley or Propride hitch will eliminate the big truck push pull.
Not exactly. While the hitch will help, you will still have the push, only it is different. The truck and trailer get pushed together as one and won’t flex at the hitch point like a regular hitch. You will be more in control and won’t have sway but you will still feel the bow wave.

RE: Frig won't ignite on propane

Make sure battery is fully charged. My fridge won’t light unless battery is over 90% even if plugged in to shore power.

RE: Thinking about the next Tow Vehicle

5100lbs dry? That can easily push 6500lbs loaded. That will exceed the tow limits of most mid size SUVs. You’d be easily within the range of any half ton with a turbo V6 or V8. A tuck will have a longer wheelbase than an SUV and be more stable.
Since you specifically mention a Tundra and buying used I would recommend checking it out. They are reliable and will hold value over the long run. The drivetrain is bulletproof. It is geared for towing and won’t even notice that weight except for in MPGs, it is thirsty. The Taco is a little undersized for what you want to tow.

RE: Where have all the members gone on this forum?

I’ve noticed the same. New posts usually decline over the winter months to less than a page but the summer months usually had easily 2 pages of new posts per day. Today including this post there wasn’t even half a page. Sad.

RE: Fifth Wheel Hitch - tried searcing

Get an under mount gooseneck hitch and then either an Anderson or b&w companion fifth wheel for it. The b&w isn’t light weight but is a superior hitch.
