We've been over it a couple of times, but with only our truck. We have a diesel and FW, but we could tow over it if we had to. Having the diesel for braking is an advantage. In our drives over, we've encountered Class A's and C's, along with towables.

We went over it last September, but also just with our diesel truck. We left the fifth wheel in our Cody RV park, took the Chief Joseph Highway to Cooke City, had lunch in Lamar Valley. That afternoon we drove the Beartooth Highway down to Red Lodge, then state highways back southeast to Cody. So the loop can all be done in a single day.

Great drive and the Chief Joseph Highway was just as interesting as the Beartooth. You could also camp in one of the beautiful Forest Service campgrounds near Cooke City and make the same loop. So I would do both highways if you have time.
