Ok I have neither as of yet. Want a 5TH wheel TH.
Was looking at 2016 GMC 2500 HD gas.here are some specs that I pulled up online for just about the truck I am looking at.
Curb 6459
Payload 3274
GVWR MAX 9500
Max 5th wheel 14100
GCWR 20500
So loaded truck and loaded 5th wheel should not exceed 20500#?
But max gvwr and max 5th wheel = 23600#
So I take curb weight plus all things I would put in truck.... me passenger and 5th wheel hitch.. so let's say 800# (not traveling more than 2 hrs from home)
6460+800= 7260 so that would leave me with 2240# for pin weight of 5th wheel?
