Busnut loves his buses, but Wife wants a 5th wheel
Like many things in life, those involved with a particular discipline/vocation/avocation/hobby/geographic domain/political party, etc., have strong opinions that theirs is the best way…
…my wife made me look a 5th wheels all afternoon. Her idea is for us to sell our 2 buses and to buy a new 5th wheel. She is tried of the buses nickle and diming us to death. I love my buses and don’t want to part with them. But I have to admit the 5ers are sure nice now days although the walls are flimsy. The salesman showed me aluminum framing which appears to make them lighter and stronger. As well as central heat and air. But I still have the bus bug.

All in good fun, ok? One of these years I actually want *both*. Plan to hire someone to move the 5er from time to time between regions and use it as a home base, with the coach for surrounding states. Most busnuts seem to be purists in this regard but 5ers have an undisputed advantage for only occasional moving around.
