Hello all!! Brand new here to the forum. I have just purchased and brought home our new 5th wheel(with a buddies truck)and I am getting mixed reviews on which setup to get. Our 5th wheel is a Palomino Columbus 42" 7" 2,600 tongue weight,13,300 "dry", 16,600 +- laden. I have my eye on a '17 RAM 3500 4x4 with the 6' 4" box, SRW, with the Cummins 6.7. I have had several people tell me I NEED a Dually, it will ride better and be more stable, which makes sense but, is it really "necessary"? I am not ready for a DRW due to reasons of my own, however, if I am kidding myself, I would like to hear it from others who tow 5th wheels. Thanks!
Get a 'real' dually - a singled HDT.
Less $$ than a new or used SRW or DRW pickup, all the whistles and bells (inc'l automatic tranny) - and tow *anything* you want. In most states, can be registered as a MH, no special DL required.
Visit the Escapees HDT forum. Learn.
Good luck with your choice.
