Travel trailers and fifth-wheel trailers are towable RVs that fall into the same category as foldup trailers and truck campers. They can towed by a car, van, or pickup by means of a bumper or frame hitch. They are larger and heavier than foldup trailers and will require a tow vehicle that is rated to tow its weight. These types of trailers are popular choices in the RV world because of the variety of floor plans available, which makes them suitable for families with children from toddlers to teenagers. When you arrive at your destination, you can unhook the trailer from your tow vehicle and have transportation to all the sights in the area, with a comfortable bed to sleep in at night.
