If your fifth wheel has sleeping, cooking, and toilet facilities, it may qualify as your second home. You can still enter the interest for your second home in box 1 of the 1098 section of TurboTax. (Click the first screenshot below for reference.) Be sure to store the paperwork that shows the interest you paid with your tax records.
To enter the interest you paid on your fifth wheel:
