[QUOTE="SerchforPerch, post: 262340, member: 2585"] This^^^ Had this happen to me at a well known Camper store on the east end of Bismarck (just south of the truck-stop). This salesman filled me with so much B.S. on how my 1/2 ton would handle 10,000 lb trailer "with no problems" not too mention the shady price "negotiating" they tried pulling on me, nonetheless they lost a customer forever!... But back to your question- If you want to pull a 5th wheel SAFELY do it with a 3/4 Ton or bigger. They're geared and made for pulling -the suspensions are more equipped for it.. when determining how much your going to be pulling look at the loaded weight not dry weight, road conditions, wind conditions, etc. Peace of mind that your pulling something safely goes along ways for you and others your sharing the road with... 5th wheels pull 100 times better than any bumper trailer Ive owned.
