[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 300848, member: 324"] Recently sold my small pop-up camper, and am looking to purchase a used 5th Wheel unit. My pickup does not have a 5th Wheel hitch, and am wondering people's thoughts regarding the various units, and their use. My current pickup does have a trailer brake controller. It's a full-size half ton. I don't plan on pulling anything behind the camper. I contacted Glen's Welding in Bismarck, and they can put in a standard unit, installed, for about $675. This apparently is the base model, that includes "rails". I may be wrong, but do the rails remain in the truck bed, when the hitch is removed? Are there better units that leave less hardware in the bed, when not in use? I'm not 100% against spending additional money, but I don't feel the need to get the top-of-the-line unless there are real and definite bonuses involved. Thoughts? Thank you fellas, for you experience and expertise. Jim Kemp [/QUOTE]
