Spotted this Chevy Colorado and 5th wheel combo. It's not a Keystone, but it is probably the smallest 5th wheel I've seen. Never dreamed someone would tow a 5er with a Colorado!

I believe these Escape RVs are made in Chilliwack BC. This one looks to be the 5.0TA dry weight 3880# with a dry hitch weight of 600.

I just knew there was a 5er for an F150!

I think Scamp makes a small 5er also.

Don't remember the model of 5th wheel, but we ran into some folks a number of years ago with a small single axle 5th wheel about 18 ft. They towed it with a Ford Ranger pickup. There are some truly small rigs out there. Very hard to find these days, though.

There are quite a few ball hitch models between teardrop and truly looooong, but fiver models do seem to start out fairly large these days. That said, I'd wager this guy enjoys all the heads snapping around to look at his rig passing by! ;)
