Can confirm. I've been fifth wheeling for >20 years. They're much easier to tow and you don't need as much length behind the tow vehicle for an equivalent amount of space (because the bedroom is usually above the hitch point). They're also much easier to hook up in the first place because you don't have to repeatedly back up the truck "blind" to get the tow vehicle into the perfect spot.
Fifth wheels can seem scary to people who are not familiar with them, but the benefits are numerous if you can overcome that fear.
