RamMan · 2006-02-09T00:48:02+00:00

I'm getting mixed information, so I thought I'd ask the experts in thisgroup.The wife and I are looking at possibly purchasing a Holiday Rambler"Presidential" model 36SKQ 5th wheel trailer. Accordfully loaded GVWR - 16,950 lbsHitch weight - 2,280 lbsSo the question of this group is, can I legally and safely tow this unitwith the current model Dodge 3500 dually (diesel).If not, what is the recommended tow vehicle?ThanksBill

i see it all the time round here. (not that i would do it either) most who are doing it are pulling the 5er and a bass boat

I've seen boats on our highways towed behind a fiver but this was some years back; so, I reckon that it can be done. Haven't seen any lately though because my RVing days ended just shortly after Ivan here when somebody bought the trailer and truck.
