I'm looking to purchase either a 5th wheeler or travel trailer and I'm not sure what the towing capacity is of my truck. Here are the specs for my truck. Thanks. Vehicle Name ...
Lets assume 1000 lbs of payload left after loading people and gear hitch etc.
With a travel trailer and 10-15% hitch wt, max trailer, 10000 lbs with 10%
A 5w with 20-25% hw, is 5000 to as little as 4000 lbs max.
One can always tow more with a lower HW % rig than a higher one, ie TT vs 5W. Both have plus and minus's to them in all reality. Set up correctly, all will tow fine.
