I just purchased a Keystone Montana and will be purchasing a new truck in the near future. In the meantime it will be on my lot at the lake. My question is can my Ford F250 (gas) with a 3.73 pull this fifth wheel short distances? Not planning on using it to go cross country but perhaps to dealer etc...within a couple hours. I know it’s not ideal, and simply want to know if it will be able to pull it until I make a purchase on a bigger truck?
Thanks!

What year is the truck. What is the rear GAWR and what tires are on the truck? What does the rear axle weigh now empty. Add 150-200 for hitch and subtract that from RGAWR, and assure tires are able to handle the load. It will be a t u r d on the road if you have hills.
