5th wheel weights and trucks to tow?????
I'm sure i'm about to ask the million $ question, not the question worth a million but the one asked a million times. Looking at buying a 5th wheel for full timing, narrowed down to mobile suites ...

Don 2466 See my the fiver and truck in my sig. I don't have my loaded weight yet I am not done loading as we are fulltime. Fiver came from factory dry at 17,235 with 3400 on the pin. We have things like 4-6v batteries, 6500k Gen. Fiberglass roof and some other goodies that add up the weight. The truck will pull it, stop it etc. without problem. I don't know about the GM or Ford products but I know they are getting higher numbers so that is your choice. The guys that drive the HDT's and MDT's well that is what they like. The 2013 + Rams have real number to back up the claim. Been in the Blue Ridge mountains and it did great. Looking forward to the Eisenhower Tunnel later this year. I may even take the cruise control off. Good luck with whatever you decide.,
