i like hauling with a goose neck feels very solid- backing is different then a bumper pull had to get used to it but you can turn them around in a very small area. Once I did it too tight and i smashed the back window of my truck. Also a gooseneck cuts in when you make a turn the trailer turns sharper then the truck so you have to turn a little wide or the trailer ends up rolling over the curb my bumper pull follows my car. Not sure if its the same with a fifth wheel ? Sometimes when i turn my 17 while backing too tight i have popped off one of my stablizer bars haven't hit my storage box yet. My great advice is take it slow don't let others rush you when you have to back out of a tough place all my mistakes were avoidable if i had slowed down and thought my way through the problem.
