Question: for those of you that have done the same or similar; do you think that i will be pleased, towing the 5th wheel?


Thank you
I have a 2016 Ram 3500 dually pulling a 2014 Solitude 305RE. For safety and paece of mind
I beleive you should have more truck than you need, not just enough truck.Exhaust brake and tow haul mode feature makes a world of difference. 6.7 Cummins pulls 16000 lbs. with no effort. Downhill exhaust braking is amazing. Long bed with daul wheels makes the rig more stable in wind and when passing big rigs. Long bed gives you the capability to turn 90 degrees.
