Towing with 5.5 Ft Box

OP. The answer is that you CAN tow some fivers with the right Truck with the 5.5 ft bed. The right truck is usually a F150 with the max tow and HD payload package or a GM truck with the NHT package.

Just like a Half Ton (grocery getter) can tow some travel trailers but not all.

Also, in general, you can tow a bigger Travel Trailer with a half ton than a fiver. A half ton runs out of payload and rear axle rating faster than a 3/4 or 1 ton truck.

Love my grocery getter...I personally and willing to deal with the trade offs for a vehicle that is much easier to deal with on a daily basis. (I work in the city)

Thanks!

Can't get the HD payload with a 5.5 bed. It has to be a 6.5 Crew or 8' Scab or 8' Reg cab.
Max Tow can be had with all.
