Towing Issues: Fifth-Wheel towing, 5th wheel trailer, fifth wheel towing
QuestionLooking at purchasing a 5th Wheel trailer with a GVWR of 17,000. Is the Dodge 3500 6.7L Cummins Diesel adequate? If not, I do not know where to look for a suitable tow vehicle. The rating on the 3500 is 22000 combined weight. So, it looks like I would be over.
AnswerWell I have no real answers here, as this is not my area of expertise...
But I do know that Dodge and Chevrolet do not really make a pickup style unit over the 3500 size..
I am partial to Fords, and I do like the F 450 and F 550 which have more "Beef" and weight ratings..
