We're thinking about buying a 37' TT and pulling it with a Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with the Cummins Turbo Diesel and single rear wheels. We're concerned about stability pulling that size trailer. All opinions are welcome. Thanks.
If quad cab with 8 foot bed you're going to be overall about 67 feet long. With 15% on tongue weight and good towing mirrors...but still going to be a pain to back and make lane changes and If you go 5th wheel watch pin weight. But you got the right machine to do it. My 2500 recently added oversize diff cover and temp gauge, no problems with 4:10 gears with old 47re trans. Added air bags just to feel better.
(Don't worry somebody will be around to say they have towed for 500 years and 500 different trailers that are 500 feet long etc.)
A Ram 2500 CC LB is exactly 21'6" long. A 37' TT is 37' long.
That adds up to 58'6" not 67'.
