In 2005 we thought along the lines you did and bought a truck, We thought it would be fine. Then we bought a 5th wheel. Did not work together. I would suggest you get the 5er you want, Then buy a truck that will pull it. Also take the rig out for a month or so before you give up your apartment. I love spending the winter in Fl in a 55+ community and although my husband wanted to buy land I have resisted. WE have in the past 10 years seen too many couples who do what you want to do and 5 years down the road find it isn't what they want or can do any longer and have nothing to return to that is on one floor. We have been wintering in our Montana for 10 years now and love it. But he hates dragging it anywhere, which is another whole kettle of fish. It isn't difficult, we can both drive, just very nerve wracking for him. My advice is try living the way you want to go before you give up everything for a mobile lifestyle.
