I wonder how much tongue weight this rig puts on the truck, and how stable it tows.
It looks like it won't put much tongue weight on the tow vehicle wihch is half the goal of the thing. I'm quite certain that a large fifth wheel would tow nicer from a bed mounted fifth wheel hitch than it would on one of these dollies, however, I believe that part of the reason a fifth wheel tows better than a TT is the better weight distribution that a fiver processes. I think I'd rather tow a heavy fiver using one of these dollies than a similar size TT on a tag hitch.
