The trailer would be in the 30-33 ft range. The theoretical tow vehicle would be a fairly new (less than four model years old) F-350, diesel, crew cab, short box, single rear wheel.
My question is;
is there any advantage to towing with a 2 wheel drive truck, as opposed to towing with a 4 wheel drive truck?
We would most likely use the rig as a way to escape the summer heat here in AZ, and would most likely travel and see more of this great country. For the past several summers, we have driven between 7,000 and 10,000 miles each summer, sightseeing in the family sedan.
Thanks for your consideration.
You only need 4wd when you need 4wd and then you really need 4wd.
