My understanding is I can drive a pickup truck towing a 5th wheel provided the combined weight doesn't exceed 11,000 kg with a class G license.
Is this actual weight or gross weight as per trailer & vehicle stickers?
the tow vehicle should have a sticker on the post behind the front door. the tow vehicle axle weight limits are also on this sticker
the trailer should have a sticker on the front left.
these document the MAXIMUM.. Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings.
the actuals are not listed anywhere..
on 5th wheels (starting when I don't know) there is usually a sticker on the unit door frame specifying its 'dry' weight.
the Gross Combined Vehicle Weight Rating depends on the Actuals.
the tow vehicle towing capacity and gross combined are in a document the manufacturer publishes, but not on the vehicle.
