Is there really a 1/2 ton towable fifth wheel?
Just got rid of my bumper pull and would like to do fifth wheel but the weights look over what I would expect.

Hornnumb2, Are you by chance the person from Beach City I was talking to at Bucees a few weeks ago? Same area, same discussion, coincidence?
It depends on the truck. I barely stay within my numbers with 2000lb payload. You will have a little more wiggle room with your 2500HD because of the 6000lb rear axle. My rear axle is rated for 4200lb and I'm right at it.
This is my FW but I do not have the linen closet slide in the bedroom

CAT weights ready to camp with DW and myself in the cab. Waste tanks are empty and about 10 gallons of fresh water.
What throws my rear axle weight WAY OVER max is towing with both waste tanks full.
CAT weights with camper disconnected
