Correct me if I am wrong but the 29-5k and a 3/4 ton are not a good match...
I'm sure you're probably correct ramyankee.
That's kinda what I'm trying to ask I guess - what size truck required for what size rig?
I'm just assuming that we'd be happy in around a 30'r (since that's the size MH we have now) & I'm thinking that a F250 size truck would work with my non-towing needs.(Just not sure what type rigs the F250 and/or F350's are capable of dragging around?)
Please note - I've never really been around 5'rs since back in the late 70's when my dad had them. :)
Well not likely, the 29-5K starts out at about 11,000# and has a GVWR of 16,000#+. That and it is an Arctic Fox and therefore pin heavy.
Specifications: Dry Axle Weight (approx. Lbs.): 8545. Dry Hitch Weight (approx. Lbs.): 2663. Net Carrying Capacity: 5392. Gross Dry Weight – Lbs.: 11208. Gross Vehicle Weight 16,600.
