Looking for fifthwheeler

My problem is that there are only 3 or 4 dealers for these fifthwheelers in Germany. We went to the first one today and all he wanted to do was sell, the advice was zero. My wife wants a large kitchen area as we want to live in it for a longer time. I think for my 2006 F350, 30ft / 10m length is the maximum that makes sense considering the weight

Oh, and yeah, their used rigs seem to ALWAYS be in poor condition. I have not found a used one in good shape on a dealer lot (though I have on consignment lots), and even a lot of private seller units are in poor condition. I came across one where they had extension cords run all over the camper, and asked why...and he abruptly changed the subject. Never did get an answer.

It's a long-term search; we want to gather information for now.
We like the space offered by the US models best, but the models we've seen so far have not been of high quality.
There are also manufacturers in England; these are much better made, but of course also more expensive.

For US-made units, I suggest pre-COVID used units. The quality of most RVs went down the tubes with COVID. Not saying they are guaranteed to be bad, just you'll want to be very careful looking at anything COVID or later.
