Wife and I are in the process of buying a 26-30' fifth wheel and truck to pull it for fulltime use. We plan on doing a lot of boondocking and hitting BLM spots and are wondering if 2WD is enough or...
Backing up a dual rear wheel seem to have less traction than a single rear wheel truck. I was told it's because you have less pounds per square inch on the tires. Four tires vs two. I have a 4x4 and the only time I have used it, was when I had to back up onto some rather high leveling blocks. It takes a lot of strain off the transmission being able to shift into low range. Having said that, where I live I would never buy a vehicle without 4x4.
