Are those 2500# and 3000# pin weight numbers wet pin OR DRY?
Rough numbers for shopping purposes.........figure 20% of toyhaulers GVWR for wet pin weight.
If that number is more than your trucks 'available' payload (actual payload left AFTER subtracting weight of all passengers, fuel, stuff in cab/in bed) then that toyhauler is too big cause if truck can't handle that wet pin then other truck ratings will be overloaded (Truck GVWR, GCVWR, RAWR and/or REAR Tire MAX Load Rating)
Provided you want to stay within 'Ratings'
If not........do like 1000s have done. BUY the one you WANT and hook up.
First reply. Amazing :S
Yes "AMAZING" , this man knows more about trucks and RV's than MOST on here and if you really want any valuable information you should clear your ears and learn from his experience and factual statements.
I can see you already have your mind made up with what you are going to do.
"I don't want another dually. I've had both and to me, the only reason to have one is rear axle weights when hooked up"
And sometimes that is the reality when wanting to go big with an RV.
