Can I take my big truck with me?

It is within the specs of your hitch. Take your time and it should be no problem.

If the truck can be towed 4 down and it's under your tow rating, I don't see why not.

Shipping weight on the truck shows as 7100 lbs. For some reason I thought it weighed around 8500 lbs. What is "tow rating" and where do I find it? I've only had the motorhome about 7 months so new to this type of RVing. What kind of equipment is required and about how much $?

And the good news is if your motorhome ever breaks down you can flip things around and tow it with the truck! But on a serious note, I have a 35 foot DP with a 330 HP cat and I tow a Dodge Dakota 4x4 with it and I used to tow a Jeep Liberty. When I went from the Liberty to the Dakota I could feel the extra weight back there and the loss in performance. I wouldn't even think about towing something of the size you are talking about myself, but I live in California and we have mountains here.

The problem I see for you is you may spend a lot of money setting it up to be towed, and then find out you don't like it at all once you have it set up.

I just checked the window sticker/spec sheet and it lists 7000 lb hitch receiver with dual connector. Does that mean my "tow rating" is only 7k lbs or does that mean the receiver will handle up to 7k lbs hitch weight? Probably sounds like a stupid question but if I knew the answer I wouldn't ask.

go to a gravel pit and ask them to weigh your truck for you they will probably do it for free

msmith1199 California is a beautiful state. We have RV'd a large part of it. We usually go to see our daughter in Oregon and explore after that. Have to cross the Appalachians, Rockies, and the Cascades to get there. My mountain driving makes my DW nervous.

That truck is already set up to tow travel trailers, 5th Wheel trailers, and carry slide-in truck campers. What does it take to set it up to be towed 4 down?

It needs a base plate on the front and a matching tow bar and wiring for lights and signals from coach to toad. It does not matter what you have towed with it.

I would also put on some kind of braking system if you want to make stops. That is a lot of extra weight and it is a requirement many places.
