TOAD dilemma. Chev Colorado vs Ram 1500
I'm looking for a truck to tow behind an 03 Southwind 32V with WH chassis so I can put my motorcycle in the bed. I posted previously and was leaning toward the Chev Colorado. I looked at a nice 2012 ...

I need a veh to drive as well so it's not just to carry the bike.
Doing some research it looks like the Ram I would get would be right around 5k lbs. Add 600 for the bike and a few camping items I would be around 6k lbs.
I think with brakes on the truck this would be no problem for a 32' MH on the WH chassis.
Ironically, as I was setting up camp yesterday on the Rincon I saw an older Class A gas MH pass by towing a 2500 Duramax 4x4 with something big in the bed. Didn't get a good look but I'll bet he was towing close to 8k lbs. I know, doesn't make it right.
