It may not be perfect, but if it is in good shape, I would not be afraid of it.
Too many gears? Phoeey. It's an autoshift. You will not care, as it does all the work.
Too much power? No such thing, just don't go ape stomping on the throttle.
Too tall? Maybe, as I have not been in many RV parks, but there are also other places to park. And with the big sleeper, you have more room to gut and modify, such as extra seating, fridge, microwave, etc.
Tandem? Well, I like them, but don't have anything to do with 5th wheels, so that may be an issue. Check with a KW dealer to see what kind of a PIA that is to deal with if you really need to.
I would be more concerned with the overall condition of the truck. You may find it better to get a good used truck and learn what works for you and what doesnt, then buy according to those lessons.
