And speed on highways is easily met with the kind of motor home that Actros was towing. That was a 16k or maybe and 18k at the most which is well within what our class 3 trucks can easily tow. Maybe that is a lot of when for your midsize pickups(utes), but not for our class 3 pickups. A class 8 truck is simply not needed for that little of weight and would made for a very limiting unloaded daily driver.
How did you bring MidsizePickups into this? ANY Midsize would fail. . People who own Toterhomes do not think the Class 3's would cut the mustard. Regulators here are in agreement, so you cannot use a Class 3 Pickup to tow 43ft 5th Wherlers
As Toterhomes come from the US you can talk to them
I never said to use class 3 trucks for toterhomes so I am not sure where you are getting that.
What I did say is that because of our class 3 truck power and capabilities, we do not need class 8 trucks in order to tow the trailer in this picture. That is all. Never said anything about class 3's being used with toterhomes. This is probably a 16k trailer. Maybe 18k at most. Either way, it is well within what our class 3 trucks can handle. If it is 16k, then even some of our class 2b trucks can tow it.
