Yes the 2016 6.0 4x4 2500 HD is rated for 14000 lbs. for a fifth wheel. 13k bumper pull. The only difference between the 2500 and 3500 is the rear tires and suspension. I plan on upgrading at least the tires for the pin weight. I am not interested in a travel trailer as my truck sits so high it is very dangerous to load my motorcycle, and the extra living space in the garage is essential. If I have to go slow I don't mind I have time. If I don't get good MPG that's ok I have a fuel station.
I have been assured by heartland that this is one of the most insulated models they make. and while not rated for full timer, it's about as close as I can get on my budget, and with my truck.
You were right about the roof, it is 7 inches thick, not 12, but i believe that will be adequate.
I took delivery today. We will see how it goes. Thank you all for your help.
