Your Complete Guide to Fifth Wheel RVs – Find Your Perfect Fit at McClain’s RV

If you’re dreaming of home-style luxury on the road, fifth wheel RVs are the gold standard. At McClain’s RV Superstores, we offer a massive selection of fifth wheel models designed for everything from weekend getaways to full-time living. Whether you’re in Texas or Oklahoma, our inventory features top brands like Grand Design, Highland Ridge, and more—packed with the features and space you need to travel in comfort.

What Makes Fifth Wheel RVs Unique?

Unlike travel trailers that hitch to the rear bumper of a vehicle, fifth wheels connect inside the bed of a pickup truck via a gooseneck-style hitch. This setup allows for smoother towing, better stability, and more room to design spacious, multi-level floorplans. Whether you’re planning long road trips or setting up camp for the season, fifth wheels offer a true home-away-from-home feel.

Travel-Ready: Where Can You Take a Fifth Wheel RV?

Fifth wheels are best suited for larger RV resorts, state parks, and full-hookup campgrounds. With features like residential kitchens, washer/dryer prep, and slide-outs, they’re ideal for extended stays. While some models can handle light off-grid adventures, fifth wheels generally shine at well-equipped sites with plenty of room to maneuver and set up.

Are Fifth Wheels Difficult to Tow?

Despite their size, fifth wheels are actually among the easiest towable RVs to handle—when paired with the right truck. The over-the-axle hitch connection gives you improved turning radius, stability, and weight distribution. Whether you’re towing a compact Highland Ridge Roamer or a full-size Grand Design Solitude, the ride will feel more balanced than many travel trailers.

How Big Are Fifth Wheels?

Fifth wheels typically range from 30 to 45 feet in length and can weigh anywhere from 8,000 to over 20,000 pounds. At McClain’s RV, you’ll find options in every size category—from lightweight models like the Reflection 150 Series 260RD to luxury giants like the Solitude 417KB or Momentum 414M.

Fifth Wheels vs. Travel Trailers vs. Toy Haulers

Each RV type has its strengths:

• Fifth Wheels offer elevated bedrooms, spacious interiors, and enhanced towing stability.
• Travel Trailers are generally lighter and more affordable, towable with a broader range of vehicles.
• Toy Hauler Fifth Wheels, like the Momentum 395MS or Highland Ridge Roamer 304BHS, add a rear garage for outdoor gear, ATVs, and flexible space usage.

Who Typically Buys a Fifth Wheel?

Fifth wheels are popular with a wide range of RVers:

• Retirees who want the comforts of home on the road.
• Families who appreciate two-bedroom layouts and bunkhouses.
• Full-timers looking for residential features and generous storage.
• Adventure-seekers who need toy hauler models to carry gear.

Pros and Cons of Owning a Fifth Wheel

Benefits:

• Spacious, multi-level interiors
• More living and sleeping zones

• Tow vehicle doubles for day trips

Considerations:

• Requires a truck with a fifth wheel hitch
• May need off-site storage due to size
• Not ideal for tight, primitive campsites

How Much Does a Fifth Wheel Cost?

• The Reflection 100 Series offers great value under $50K
• Mid-tier options like the Reflection 337RLS are in the $70K–$90K range
• Premium models like the Solitude 388MBS or Momentum 414M push into six figures with all the bells and whistles

Which Fifth Wheel Is Right for You?

The “best” fifth wheel depends on how you travel. Consider:

• For families: The Reflection 367BHS or Roamer 304BHS offers separate sleeping areas
• For full-time living: Explore the Solitude 391DL or Momentum 395MS
