5th wheel and half ton don't go together in my book. I guess it is possible for short flat distances.
My son bought a trailer with GVWR of 10k. His truck was rated to pull it. He drove about 5 miles on the freeway and told me his truck was for sale. A week later he is driving a 3/4 ton diesel.
I don't care to turn tight when backing as I really can't see my rig in my mirrors and have to rely on a spotter. I don't trust her. lol
