[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 174839, member: 704"] I think we are on camper number six. My first was a 24ft travel trailer. I bought a new 1993 GMC half ton with a 350. The dealer said I could pull any camper I wanted. Nope. So we traded for a new 5600 pound fifth wheel. Couldn't do a good job with that either so we bought a ultralight 23 foot fifth wheel. That 4600 pounds and pulled ok. Coming back from Minnesota and 20 miles west of Fargo I tried to pass an 18 wheeler doing 70. I could get up speed, but the air coming off his front stopped me. I could make it right up to his door then it stopped me. So we traded trucks and campers. Now with 17000 pounds behind I have to watch so I don't brake the speed limit. I once pulled that little fifth wheel to the Badlands for turkey season. 45 mile an hour wind, 50 mile per hour truck, five miles to the gallon. [/QUOTE]
