don't forget your class A license (not a CDL, but you do need more than the regular driver's license over 26,000lbs combined GVW)
you can do it, lots of people do, every day, and most of them do fine. But when it goes wrong, it's going to go wrong in a big way.
IMHO (and it's just my opinion) you need something like a 450/550 4500/5500 to tow something that size. Not for the go, but for the whoa and the control.
I appreciate what you're saying here.
I checked the Dodge site, and the 4500/5500 takes you to the commercial site, and then nothing shows up with a truck bed. Or am I missing something?
i dunno, maybe for Dodge you have to geta custom bed?????? I know you can buy Ford's F450/550's that are just pickups.
If you are in Denver go out to Christopher Dodge world (Colfax and I-70 on the west side more or less). They are an enormous volume dealer. They'll know or put in touch with the right people. (not a recommendation to buy, just to go look, if they don't have one, nobody in the area does)
