A fifth wheel mounts in the bed of a pickup truck above the rear axle. Unless you have a pickup with the necessary power and torque to pull a large heavy trailer you won't need a fifth wheel. In essence a fifth wheel is designed for pulling things such as bulldozers on lowboy trailers and heavy boats or very large camper trailers. The important thing in pulling these items are torque and horsepower.
