" Fivers", "Fifth Wheels" and "Fifth Wheel Trailers" are all phrases that refer to a single style of recreational vehicle. The stems from the design and way of hitching the trailer to the truck.
The hitch is placed in a tow vehicle bed almost directly over the tow vehicle's rear axle. This adds a great deal of stability and towability to the trailer. Since the hitch is mounted over the rear axle of the tow vehicle, a pickup truck or medium duty truck is used to do the towing.
Fifth wheel rvs usually range in length from about 20 feet to over 40 feet long with the bigger models becoming a real dwelling when they are fully set up for camping.
These rvs are almost always constructed with a cut out section in front to allow the hitch pin to extend over the tow vehicle bed to reach the hitch. This extended area used for the main bedroom although a few have located a living room area in this spot.
The full profile fifth wheel rv comes with everything you would need in adwelling. Fullsize recliners andloveseat along with a bigscreen tv and entertainment center are part of the lounge area optons. Larger designs include a computer desk and sometimes a fire place.
The "galley" will have a refrigerator-freezer combo, a range with oven and a microwave stove to handle the meal preparation. Upscale rvs feature solid surface counter tops and other luxury touches to rival the finest kitchen found in any dwelling.
Bathrooms also range from the simple to the sumptous. Glass walled walk in showers are not unusual in the larger units.
The upstairs bedroom may feature a queen or king size bedplaced in a slide-out with storage under the bed. Larger trailers a dresser and larger closet across the very front of the trailer.
Heating is done with a gas forced air heater ducted throughout the living area. A roof mounted air conditioner keeps the inside cool during the hotter days.
One common feature of this style of rv is the ample storage both within and underneath the living area. Most recent include a ample "basement" storage area in the forward area of the rv. This allows for inclusion of all the things that make a fifth wheel home while away from home base.
Today's fifth wheel trailers offer the ultimate in travel trailer living. They have maximum living space, easy towing, and reasonable prices for the full time rv'er.

Barry, Cost of propane ($3.85) is today's price (per gallon) in Okeechobee (we paid $2.19 in Mesa, Az). Cost of electricity ($0.1206) is Florida state's average residential rate for 2009 (Arizona's average residential rate is $0.1134).
Average electric rates are easily available, or you can ask your seller (the local utility or your reseller if you are buying through a park). Propane prices appear only available anecdotally — I found no propane price lists available on the internet. Others may know a source for this.
I'm interested if anyone has measured their RV refrigerator's electrical consumption.
I used a 650 btu/hr maximum rate for propane for 7cf RV refrigerators, a rate I found on internet. You can back into this from the fridge's rating
I used 50% of the max rate as assumption of average running time, just a swag. Propane contains approx 92,000 btu per gallon.
Running time is approx = 0.5 X (92,000/650) = 70.7 hours per gallon
Thanks for your question and interest —
Jim
