we have a 27ft bumper pull Jayco travel trailer.
we took a trip up into the Smokey Mountains this fall with friends.
all I can say, it sure was nice to hear that old Dodge diesel humming along pulling mile after mile up those long mountain roads. Plenty of torque and power when needed.
also coming down out of the mountains with mile after mile, the tow/haul was holding the load back.
My friends chevy 2500 with diesel and Allison trans also did a fine job and he was pulling a 12,500 lb trailer.
so whatever you buy, don't cheap out on the tow vehicle, it's no time to find out you did not buy enough truck when you are coming down a long mountain road with Semi-trailers in front and behind you.
just get under the trucks and look at the difference in the brakes on a 1500 series verse 2500/3500 series
good luck and be safe.
remember: it is important what you can safely pull, but it's super important what you can stop when some fool pulls out in front of you and you have to shut her down.
