Pulling a boat with truck camper
I just bought a 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 diesel megacab. My wife & I were thinking we wanted to buy a nice camper trailer and that's why we got a big diesel truck. However, I also just bought a 17' smoke...

You mentioned Megacab. What's your truck bed length? If you have the shortbed model, the megacab bed is extra short. You will need to check camper models for the center of gravity over the rear axle. With my truck camper on a regular Quadcab shortbed, I just make the recommeded C/G. If you have the longbed 3500 model, towing a 17 footer shouldn't be a problem.
The megacab only comes from Dodge with the 6'4" short bed.
OP. Your truck will be fine with any shortbed camper and that boat. I have a 2006 2500 megacab, Lance 830, and a much heavier boat going on our 5th year of camping with a family of 4.
