So being new to the fifth wheel community - haven’t bought one yet because I am concerned that my new truck, 2022 2500 4x4 short bed may not tow it safely. Although factory prepped for the hitch; research is showing that the gross weight of 10,000 pounds would be maxed out.
Considering the purchase of a toy hauler . What concerns me is the weight on the bed.
Truck will tow 20,000 pounds. Units looking at are the RAPTOR 351 or a Logan Toy Hauler.
Thank you for your input.
Well yes, it will PULL up to 20,000#, the issue is CARRYING the pin weight associated with RV 5er weight. The 20,000# pull capacity is based on pulling a flatbed goose-neck trailer loaded with water tanks and the load adjusted to a pin weight within the capacity of the truck model.
Good luck with whatever you decide.
