class=\"has-medium-font-size\">A 5th wheel camper typically has 4 wheels and larger 5th wheels actually have 6. <strong>So why are they called \u201c<em>Fifth Wheels\u201d<\/em>?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The name \u201cFifth Wheel\u201d actually refers to the hitch that\u2019s used to tow the RV. Back when fifth wheel hitches were invented (the mid-1800s) they were circular and added to horse-drawn carriages to haul trailers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Since the round shape of the hitch was the same shape as the carriage wheels, the hitch was jokingly referred to as a \u201cfifth wheel\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Today, fifth wheel hitches are U-shaped, but they\u2019re still called \u201cFifth Wheel Hitches\u201d. Fifth wheel hitches are installed in the back of trucks and provide a safe and stable way to tow larger, heavier trailers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/hitch2.jpg\" alt=\"A U-Shaped 5th Wheel Hitch\n\" class=\"wp-image-346560\" width=\"513\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/hitch2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/hitch2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 513px) 100vw, 513px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>A U-shaped 5th Wheel Hitch<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-large-font-size\" id=\"price-ranges\"><strong>5th Wheel Price Ranges <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/rv-search?brand=Solitude&amp;s=true&amp;sort=price-asc\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/Solitude_Arizona26-web-header-edited.jpg\" alt=\"2 couples outside a Solitude camper in the mountains\" class=\"wp-image-346565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/Solitude_Arizona26-web-header-edited.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/Solitude_Arizona26-web-header-edited-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/Solitude_Arizona26-web-header-edited-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/rv-search?brand=Solitude&amp;s=true&amp;sort=price-asc\">The Grand Design Solitude<\/a> is a popular 5th Wheel for families and couples.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Many factors combine to determine the final cost of a fifth wheel, from manufacturer size and quality of building materials to model upgrades and add-on options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">To give you a quick pricing reference, we\u2019ve put fifth wheels into 3 categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color\" id=\"entry-level-prices\" style=\"color:#005568;font-size:33px\"><strong>Entry-Level Fifth Wheel<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:19px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:21px\"><em><strong>Price Range: $26,000 &#8211;

Fifth wheels with more square footage, like those with multiple slides, typically cost more because of the added labor and materials needed to build them\u2014plus they offer more living space, so they\u2019re worth more money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Along with the number of slides a fifth wheel has, where those slides are located on the RV, such as a kitchen slide or a bedroom slide, can also greatly affect its price. Additional floor plan features, like a fireplace or an outdoor kitchen, will also impact the price of your fifth wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:29px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/rv-search?brand=Wildwood+Heritage+Glen&amp;stocknumber=320VIEW&amp;s=true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/wildwood-1024x447.jpg\" alt=\"Wildwood Heritage Glen 320VIEW 5th wheel floor plan\" class=\"wp-image-346576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/wildwood-1024x447.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/wildwood-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/wildwood-768x335.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/wildwood-1536x670.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/504\/2025\/03\/wildwood-2048x893.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bishs.com\/rv-search?brand=Wildwood+Heritage+Glen&amp;stocknumber=320VIEW&amp;s=true\">Wildwood Heritage Glen 320VIEW<\/a> 5th Wheel from Forest River.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:70px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-large-font-size\" id=\"how-do-materials-affect-the-cost-of-a-fifth-wheel\"><strong>How do Materials Affect the Cost of a Fifth Wheel?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The materials used to build your fifth wheel will greatly affect its cost\u2014higher quality materials result in a higher-priced camper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><li><strong>Frame:<\/strong> A steel frame is typically less expensive than an aluminum frame because aluminum is a lighter weight, more corrosion-resistant metal.<br><br><\/li><li><strong>Siding: <\/strong>Fiberglass siding is more durable and offers better insulation.

The farther a dealer is from a manufacturer, the higher the shipping fees included in the price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Additionally, in larger cities, there\u2019s typically a higher demand for campers, and this drives prices up compared to more rural, less populated areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">RVs sold in popular vacation spots and tourist destinations can be priced higher, due to their increased demand in those perfect camping areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Registration fees and the cost of insurance are also affected by your location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:22px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color\" id=\"time-of-year\" style=\"color:#005568;font-size:28px\"><strong>Time of year<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Manufacturers offer dealers better value starting in the fall and through the winter<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Manufacturers often offer discounts to dealerships in the fall to increase demand as the camping season comes to an end.
