Hi
Fullltime 5th Wheel & Tow Combo $50-$60K?
:
I need some help with decision making for purchasing a used 5ver and Tow Vehicle in order to relocate. I live in the NE and would be able to travel to another part of the country to pick up the 5ver after getting the tow vehicle and Hitch setup for it.

What I would require in the 5th Wheel are as follows:
Insulation(For Cold weather if needed)
At least 35' with slides for space.
Aluminum Framing
AL Siding
Bath Tub\Shower Combo
2 Air-conditioning units(Or be capable of having)

The price I am willing to go for the comb is $50-$60K. I would buy used in order to save on cost and would like the nits to be no more than 3-5yrs. Old.

I am new to looking at 5th wheels and at first considered a regular RV,but I need the versatility of using the truck for hauling after deciding on a piece of land to develop for a residential site so I would be living in the 5th wheel fulltime for a few years I think.

I am thinking of relocating to the Hurricane Disaster area as there will be help needed there.

Thanks for any help and suggestions!

Go to wwww.lazydays.com and look around. You might find what your looking for. If not call and ask sales. They have tow vehicles also.

Here is a link to some used Tetons and trucks. Keeping the price below $60K will be the hard part.
