Pick up trucks work great to tow 30,000 lb trailers. For light loads like that I will usually leave the big truck parked and use a SRW pick up. However, the tandem dually gooseneck trailer we have is not really built to handle the weight. The axles and suspension need regular repair. I think my next gooseneck will be a tridem dually.
You tow 30k lb trailer on the road for many miles with SRW pickups?
I do but most of the miles I put on my truck I'm either running empty or towing my 15000 lb rv so my truck is a compromise. For running around empty a f150 would be nice and ideally I would have a dually for the 30,000 lb trailers.
