My "Vintage" truck is one if the best tow vehicles ever built there buddy.
Don't forget that you're =carrying= a whole lot more than if you had a trailer, and you don't have a weight transfer system with FW's.
Later: OK, after reading that you want to tow the FW very rarely, maybe only 1 time, to your hunting/fishing spot, I'm with the guy that said to buy what you'd like, then have it towed to the site. Another suggested a park model. They can be found pretty cheap, and will give you a lot more "homey" feel. Shoot, for $70k you can buy a nice double-wide around here in AZ. :-) Save the money and get a well-matched FW and truck when you're ready to hit the road on a regular basis.
Really, people on here are willing to help and give advise, based on their experiences. Yeah, sometimes it doesn't come across all that well, but I will say, neither does the attitude you've shown, so far. Just sayin'... Take it easy, don't get offended and try and learn something. Posters here will try and help you to NOT make a mistake, help you make your camping experiences more enjoyable and try and keep you safe while you tow.
