i'm sure someone must know the current cost of having a 5th wheel hitch supplied and fitted plus the brake controller and associated wiring to a uk pickup ?????

I'll bet there is someone out there who knows how much fuel it takes to get to the moon and back.

Hi John I think when I did my Transit ( at Messingham fishing last year) the Tekonsha brake unit was about £120.00 & the rails for the 5th wheel where about £ 100.00,I fitted them myself (with help from our works mechanic) I already had the 5th wheel fitted to my L200 & this was a second vehicle so I could move the 5th wheel from one to other.When I bought the 5ver from Niche the original 5th wheel & wiring was fitted in with the purchase price.If you ring Greg @ Niche in Lincolnshire 01507327172 I am sure he will give you a price or sell you the parts to fit yourself.
I'm sure they do John.
Yep I had one fitted last March.
I'll bet there is someone out there who knows how much fuel it takes to get to the moon and back.
Yep sure do:Sad:

sorry John but because escaping the earths atmosphere is dependant on the slingshot effect it is far from a straight line, hee hee.toll free Brian but you need a VERY large fuel tank.
and, in this instance, a straight line is the shortest.

joking aside John are you thinking of going the 5th wheel route yourself or helping someone else.
thinking about it for me roger.
not enough work/wages to meet the payments on the van at the moment but we all know finance houses dont care about things like that, all they want is paying regardless, so it might get repo'd soon.
looking at every avenue to prevent it but its not looking good.
a used 5er will be affordable when shirls property sells and no ongoing costs once bought...road tax, MOT etc, just insurance to worry about.
already got the pickup and wont need the toad so theres a saving.

Very sorry to here that mate, I have just helped a mate of mine who was going through a similar thing, Not a MH but a car.
He was financed to Black Horse, I suggested he ring them and explain situation ie that he couldn't afford payments, and suggested he ask if it could be changed to a longer finance agreement, He did as I suggested and they phoned him back next day and did just that, it was originally over 3 years and they asked him what he could afford and they changed it a 5 year agreement and if and when his finances change he can change it back.
It's worth a try.

Having spent all my working life in Finance houses I would urge you to talk with them. They are human beings after all and all they want is to do their job.
It is quite simple really................... acts like a decision tree.
1. Do we (the finance house that is) have a legally binding agreement?
Is the customer a "can pay but won't" or a "can't pay but wants to"
scenario a) Litigate and recover
scenario b) Assist via re-scheduling, suspend interest, re-write loan, etc etc.
Talk to them is my suggestion.
HTH
