That are much safer with distibuted weight, they have more space and are maneuvered easier. The downside is they are huge and take up bed space, but yo can put bikes and stuff under the hitch, they are heavier in some cases. A travel trailer is putting all the weight on the trailer and a bit on the truck-not as safe. You will need a truck for pulling anyways, so I would say your not losing much and go ahead with a 5erRe: Is it time to just give up the old truck?Get a 1 ton gas or diesel, both will tow and buy a fifth wheel if your hitch weight is over 2500 lbs, get a dually or consider one for extra weight distributionRe: Whats Your Real Weights?

I would consider it but always weigh your options to pick your perfect beauty.
