Thanks for the ideas! One of the rvs I've looked at is this smaller older artic fox 5th wheel, and my question is how is the pin/hitch weight listed is only 1500? I am assuming this is the unloaded weight? I know they lie and cheat on all of these so you think your truck can take it okay no matter what you have. And Im not asking the dealer cause I know they will be like yeah sure, even if I had a f150..lol. Okay, can't post an image, tried, it just shows up as a x, so...stated pin weight is 1500 yet gross weight is 1200 and dry weight is 8560. So pin weight is based on dry weight correct? And that would be the weight over the rear axle right? Sorry so many questions, I really like this 5th wheel, but I know I probabaly should be looking at a lighter 19 or 23 foot bumper pull model. Tell me I'm right and I will move on, ;)
