I don't have any personal experience but my boss sure does and we talk about it all the time.
She has a 03 or 04 Dodge 2500. She bagged it and put an E brake on it. Other than that it is stock.
They hang a Fuzion 36 footer on the tail of the Dodge. I think she said it weighs somewhere around 13K+ fully loaded. They don't really put anything in the garage other than a few dog beds and a BBQ so it's heavy on the pin. How heavy? I don't know?
I have seen the setup and there is nothing scary about it. Looks normal to me and I look at a lot of setups. I have asked her many times how it tows and the answer is always, "fine, no problems." I asked her how it handles and the answer is always, "just fine."
We live on the west coast so she is always towing in the mountains.
Should you do it? I have no idea? That's up to you. I'm just telling you what my boss does with a similar setup and I would have no problems towing her setup all over the US just like she does.
BTW, for the guy that said they "charged someone". What was he charged with exactly?
