Welcome to this forum for all types of 5th wheels, tho the majority of posts will be from DRV (Doubletree) owners.
You will get many opinions soon about what to look for in both a trailer and a tow vehicle--I don't want to start into that as I am personally locked into a Mobile Suites/F450 combo and that is not the only way to go, and it is the only 5th wheel I have owned.
You may have a problem with what you have mentioned as the total cost or the setup, unless you go with used vehicles. However, MSRPs are very subject to discounting--maybe you aren't to far off. Sounds as tho you will need a dual-wheel tow vehicle for the trailer you are considering.
Hang around, should be some recommendations coming soon.
A lot of the fun is in the hunt...
Joe
