Do a search for "forwarding garages". You will find companies that will ship anything on wheels. While in the Air Force, I used them to ship cars to Hawaii and back. Friends used them to ship boats (24' to 36') and even a Cessna 175. Oh, the boat was on a trailer with wheels and the Cessna had to have the wings removed and stored along side.
But, there are many companies that will ship a 5th wheel to Norway, Australia, or just about anywhere else in the world (for a price).

Well in 1 year of ownership we have had 2 problems with our Mountaineer. The hydraulic ram that runs the bedroom slide was bad when we got the trailer. The table has cracked. Hydraulics are mostly standard parts and I think that I could have had the cylinder fixed in most any location. The table is some thing that as of right now we are still using, a new one is coming but not here yet. And it is also something that could be fixed by any good cabinetmaker. After this weekend it's on us, no warranty. I would think that if you can keep the Pete running you can keep a 5'th wheel going. If they will let you air over hydraulic disk would be my choice. An air brake chamber actuating the hydraulic master cylinder, and disk brakes.

We bought our 346LBQ in May and so far so good. There were a few small flaws that I fixed myself which were more due to poor design/layout than quality. the door to the bunkroom would not open when the optional sleeper sofa was out so I changed the swing so that it swings into the living area. The rubber gas hose in the kitchen slide is kinking when the slide is in and not allowing gas to the refrigerator and will take that to the dealer to be corrected. I would think that is something I could fix myself if I had to. We love the layout as we are raising two grandchildren and them having their own room and bathroom is great. Overall we are very satisfied so far.

I would have to dig the papers out to see exactly what we paid, but, that seems like a pretty good price. You could find them around 40,000 back in May. I looked them up http://www.rvtrader.com/New-And-Used-Keystone-Mountaineer-346lbq-Rvs-For-Sale----Rvtrader.Com/search-results?make=Keystone%7C2273942&model=Mountaineer+ 346lbq&vrsn=hybrid when we were looking.

If you're asking about the rear cap, I wouldn't think it's posssible. With the slides in, we can access the bedroom, bathroom and fridge. You would just have to climb across the bed since it's against the bureau at the foot. You can't access the bunk room from inside with the slides in. You can get in the bunk room through the second door. Neither of the sleeper sofas could be extended with the slides in and you cannot get to the drawers and oven in the kitchen. We have the optional sleeper sofa in the bunk room.

Yes you can still move around. You could even sit on the couch and get to the microwave if you wanted to. The kids could even sleep in the bunkroom, ours just aren't old enough that I would feel comfortable doing it. We are raising two grandkids that are with us all the time and we have two more granddaughters that will be going with us next year so all the sleeping space is great. My 22 year old son went with us this summer on vacation and he slept on the sleeper sofa in the living room. He said it was pretty comfortable. We had used mattress toppers on the sofas in our previous 5ers and he didn't even use one with the air mattress. We absolutely love this floorplan. The amount of counterspace in the kitchen really sold us on it when we were looking.

I would be concerned abvout the difference in electrical service. 60 cycles here verses 50 cycles there. We were in Spain where we had to use transformers which is not a great way to go. Not sure how that would work on all the electronic gear and appliances.....
