I do but gas engine. I max out at 12,500 lbs

if you want to pull those things you would want at least a 350 with a diesel and a 450 or better wouldn't be a bad idea. trailer alone goes 13K to 14K then add toys and equipment etc. these are the really big ones, but man they're nice.

I was talking to Cutty.

I agree completely.

Once you get to the 40' range, a 450 or 550 is pretty much a necessity.

1 tons are nice but I wouldn't call them a MEGA truck.

my thoughts exactly. i like the freightliner rv pullers but those are topping $125000 now then you add 60K for the toy hauler. brings new meaning to the term go big or go home. LOL

Yeah, but then you still have 2 places to sleep when they foreclose on your house!

A buddy of mine has one of those.

I pulled his 35' race trailer with it. Felt about the same as pulling a jet-ski with my truck.
