Trela ​​ya Kusafiri dhidi ya Gurudumu la Tano: Muhtasari

Kama ilivyotajwa hapo awali, RV hizi zote mbili zinazoweza kushikana huegemea upande mkubwa na huwa na kutoa anasa nyingi ambazo ungepata katika ghorofa. Hata hivyo, kuna tofauti chache muhimu kati ya trela ya usafiri na gurudumu la tano ambalo linaweza kufaa zaidi mahitaji na uwezo wako. Kwa maelezo ya kina zaidi, tutapitia mada zifuatazo:

• Aesthetics

• Uwezo wa Kuvuta Gari

• Vipimo

• Layout

• Drivability

• Price

Kumbuka kwamba maelezo yaliyotolewa yanaweza kutofautiana kulingana na aina ya kambi na aina ya bei unayochagua kununua. Hata hivyo, kuna uwezekano utaweza kutumia mengi ya mafunzo haya kwa uamuzi wako wa ununuzi.

Aesthetics

Before you decide which one to invest in, you want to understand what each looks like. A fifth wheel is easy to identify because of the large “tongue” that sits over the truck’s bed. Fifth wheels are generally larger and weigh much more than a traditional travel trailer.

Kwa upande mwingine, trela za usafiri zina umbo la mstatili zaidi na kwa kawaida zinaweza kuvutwa kwa kutumia SUV au gari lenye uwezo wa wastani wa kuvuta. Pia ni nyepesi zaidi kuliko magurudumu ya tano.

Uwezo wa Kuvuta Gari

A towable RV will need an additional vehicle to pull it, and the type of vehicle you have or intend to use will play a significant role in which type of camper you decide on. If you don’t already have a pickup truck or don’t intend on buying one, then a fifth wheel is out of the question for you. However, a travel trailer can be towed by most SUVs; or any vehicle with a respectable towing capacity.

If you already have a towing vehicle or intend to buy one, check its Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) to make sure it’s capable of towing the camper you desire. It is imperative that you never exceed this towing capacity.

Vipimo

Both travel trailers and fifth wheels have a wide range of sizes, specifically when considering the length. Fifth wheels are generally larger and can range between 25 – 45 feet long. Besides, additional features such as extra floors and fireplaces add to the weight, which means that fifth wheels will need a more powerful towing vehicle. Fifth wheel campers are also quite a bit taller than travel trailers, which is something to keep in mind if you are planning to drive through terrain that may have low-hanging tree branches, low bridges or tunnels, and so on.

Trela ​​za kusafiri huanza ndogo zaidi, kuanzia urefu wa futi 12 hadi 35. Ukubwa huu mdogo huwafanya kuwa chaguo bora zaidi kwa wale wanaotafuta trela rahisi na nyepesi wanayoweza kuivuta kwa SUV ya kawaida. Pia ni mafupi kuliko magurudumu ya tano, na yanaweza kutoa hisia sawa za wasaa ukichagua muundo mkubwa zaidi.

Layout

As fifth wheels are much larger and heavier, they usually carry more luxuries than a standard trailer. Amenities such as large living rooms and kitchens, fireplaces, and multiple bathrooms have been elevated to different floor heights, providing a more private, roomy feel. Also, a fifth wheel generally has between 3 – 5 slide-outs that can be used to expand the overall living space inside.

Kwa upande mwingine, trela za usafiri huzingatia zaidi mahitaji na kwa ujumla huzuiwa kwa upeo wa miondoko ya slaidi mbili, kwani huchangia kwa kiasi kikubwa uzani wa jumla.

Drivability

Since you have been reading that fifth wheels are much longer, taller, and heavier than a travel trailer, you might automatically assume that they are much harder to drive, but that isn’t necessarily the case. Since the hitch of a fifth wheel sits over the rear axle of a tow vehicle, this pivot point gives the fifth wheel a larger turning radius and makes it less likely to sway while driving. However, keep in mind that a fifth wheel can be much more of a challenge to reverse than a traditional trailer.

The lightweight body and hitch point on a travel trailer make it much more prone to swaying and much harder to maneuver. You can improve this by adding aftermarket sway bars to your tow vehicle, but it wouldn’t compare with the sturdiness of a fifth wheel.

Price

Bila shaka, trela za usafiri zina umuhimu mkubwa katika sehemu hii kutokana na ukubwa na muundo wao mdogo. Hakika, unaweza kuboresha zote mbili ili kuwa na huduma za kifahari, lakini utagundua kuwa trela za usafiri karibu kila mara ni nafuu kuliko gurudumu la tano.
