Allot of people out there are towing these larger 5th wheels with single wheel axles but I would not recommend it. The heavier weight and higher profile will cause allot of instability on single rear wheel trucks. Single rear wheel trucks also have less braking power. Either way, this size trailer will require a one ton truck at the minimum just due to pin weight, GVWR of the trailer and GCWR of the truck and trailer.
