Dave, good info on insurance and thanks for posting that. BUT...it's less about what your insurance policy will cover based on assignment of fault and more about what rental companies will rent you a vehicle that you can tow with.
Just because the ins co gives you the $$$ to rent a tow vehicle doesn't mean the rental company has to allow you to tow with it.
Amen. I can't imagine finding a decent tow vehicle at a rental lot. And lots of luck finding a rental truck with a fifth wheel hitch.
5ver hitch is tough, but you can rent 1 ton crew cabs from pretty much any equipment rental outfit. Not getting a 2019 Duramax with your favorite 5ver hitch is akin to not getting a 2019 Lamborghini if that's what got wrecked. Specialty vehicles. However if you have a puck system 5ver hitch, bet you could find a truck to rent and put it in.
Bottom line, noone is guaranteed a life with no difficulty or setbacks, and this is not one to pine over.
