Default Re: fifth wheel trailer towing

Billy,

I tow a 40 foot Vintage with living quarters, race supplies, and a 3000 pound door car. My truck is a 2006 GMC single wheel, two wheel drive, DuraMax With 52,000 miles it is untouched,[of course regular maintenance] factory original, including the factory tires. The performance is completely satisfactory.

The power of a DuraMax is very impressive. Set the cruise at your desire travel speed and relax. NOTE; cruise control setting is necessary, otherwise you run the risk of speeding tickets.

Of course, the trailer has brakes on all three axles so stopping as never been an issue.
