Venture fifth wheelers have huge benefits over both motorhomes and caravans for traveling Australia

• fifth wheelers are more stable to tow than a caravan, due to the hitching position being over the rear axle.
• fifth wheelers with the tow vehicle are up to 3 metres shorter than the equivalent caravan and vehicle combination, due to the bedroom area being located over the tray of the ute.
• fifth wheelers are more manoeuvrable than a caravan, as the ute can turn at up to 90 degrees to the 5th wheeler.
• fifth wheelers give you more freedom than a motorhome as you have a separate vehicle once set up at camp.
• fifth wheelers are simple to hitch and unhitch. A one-person job with no heavy weights involved.
• fifth wheelers can be towed by standard utes, light trucks, extra cabs and even dual cabs allowing up to 5 people to travel together.

There are a couple of criteria that you should evaluate when establishing whether a vehicle is suitable for towing fifth wheelers in Australia.

1. The overall weight of the 5th wheeler and the towing vehicle is limited to the GCM (gross combined mass) of the tow vehicle. If the GCM is 4.5 tonnes and the tow vehicle weights 2.0 tonnes, then the maximum weight of the fully laden 5th wheeler must not exceed 2.5 tonnes. From experience a Venture Fifth Wheelers weigh around 2.2 tonnes on the road.
2. Towing capacity
   1. The weight of the fully laden 5th wheeler should not exceed the towing capacity of the vehicle
      OR
   2. The weight of the fully laden 5th wheeler, MINUS the hitch weight (weight resting on the vehicle), should not exceed the towing capacity of the vehicle
