I presume you are talking about the receiver hitch and not the bumper. With that truck and a weight distribution hitch with some sort of sway control 30' is definitely doable. What engine do you have?
Camp - I havent bght the truck yet but $ is no issue. I was stinking abt a 3500 then after research I see the 2500 or even a 1500 with HD tow package and a diesel might handle it.
I had a 1988 GMC 3500 Crew 4x4 with the 454 in AK and loved it. I made a mistake and sold it when I left Ak in 2013. Thinkin abt buying it back.
I have been traveling since Oct 2013 in a 30' Minnie Winnie and thinkin my stays wld be so much more enjoyable in a TT or 5er. Just more room for me and the pups.
Oh, I tow a 2009 Grand Cherokee Limited Trail rated with Quadra Trac II that will tow 7.2k lbs itself. I cld use it but when I get back to bldg I cld use a truck.
IOW, I cld sell the MW and tow with the Jeep till I lite. Then buy whatever truck I want....or, buy the truck now and sell the MW and Jeep.
Just mulling it all over and wanting input from the sages here.
