Maybe I should start a new topic for this, but what has come of this today is this. We were looking at used 5th wheels, when we came accross a light 5th wheel. It wasn't what we wanted but I could pull it with my Dodge 2500 that has a max weight of 11,000.
I have now found 3 new 5th wheels that I can pull with my dodge.
Here they are.
They are all flagstaff. 8526rlws, 8528rkws and 8528ikws.
They all look nice. Any opinions on these products. Any opinions on flagstaff in general? What about these light version of 5th wheels. The weights on these are: 7017, 7130, and 7793. Buying one of these I won't need to buy a different truck. Plus I can get a new 5th wheel, more money going into the 5th wheel sounds good to me.
Yes, things got out of hand and off topic some. Don't know the details of your current tv but if it'a a gasser get a LIGHT one. If it doesn't do the job you may upgrade the tv later if you desire. Buying any new trailer has it's risks. I would not do it. Find one a year or so old @ a much cheaper price. Most of the bugs should have been addressed under warranty. I have had 3 toyhaulers & 1 TT. Never bought a new one. Or a truck either. I refuse to take that big loss off the dealer's lot just for the new vehicle SMELL. Just my opinion.
