While you may be familiar with the definition of an RV, travel trailer, motorhome, or toy trailer, you may not know the difference between an RV and a fifth wheel – the fifth wheel vehicle is meant to be towed behind a large truck, unlike a motorhome, which is a complete unit and travels without the use of a trailer hitch or fifth wheel coupling. Other words that have been used in place of fifth wheel vehicle are travel trailer, camper, and caravan, which may explain some of the confusion surrounding the different types of RVs.
There are several companies that sell both motorhomes and travel trailers, one of which is the company we’re highlighting today, Heartland. Heartland’s Big Country RVs are fifth wheel travel trailers that can be attached to your pickup for a weekend getaway, a camping trip, an extended vacation, or a summer on the road. With several different sizes and more than half a dozen floorplans, luxury amenities and multiple storage areas, this RVs are built for travel, whether you’re going a short distance or on a long trek.
Big Country RVs are designed to comfortably house a family, with a standard king size bed (though you can choose a queen if you prefer more space for other items or storage) and several couches. The floorplans range from compact and cozy to spacious and simple, and though it isn’t as customizable as some larger motorhomes, there are plenty of plans to choose from, which should work for any family looking to purchase a comfortable getaway vehicle. Set-up is a breeze due to the six-point auto level up and motorized cord reel, which means you’ll spend less time setting things up (and packing up) and more time enjoying the beautiful outdoors. This is a perfect set up for the family that wants a comfortable space from which to adventure.
If you’re interested in a travel trailer, you can sift through the photo gallery, take a virtual tour of the Big Country floor plans, or contact the company to talk about options. Their products are available in dealerships around the United States, but you can start your journey on their website.
