Welcome to the site! If you need help finding that 5'er, just ask away. We have lots of opinions!
You might want to go to your profile and edit it alittle more showing where you are from and type if exisiting equipment you now have. It sometimes helps us in answering questions.

Hi Charliez,
We had similar experiences. After the popup, we did two fifth wheels. Last was big with a Duramax diesel tow truck. Then discovered for the same money, we could have our dream... a diesel pusher. Now, we love our rig and never want to move up.
When shopping for a fifth wheel, verify the weight issues yourself. Do not take a salesperson's word for, "Sure, that half ton truck can tow 20,000#" I saw a family get hurt financially by their hype. This is a great forum, don't hesitate to ask lots of questions.
I do, and am still learning.
Walt
