Towing...
So a friend has a 36 foot fifth wheel camper. The thing is huge, my wife
loves it... the guy is offering it to us for a nominal number, probably get it for about 15 hundred. It's relatively newer looking, everything works, clean inside with one roof leak. New bearings, tires, etc. But it's 36 frekin' feet! That of course means another vehicle, probably a big diesel with dual rears??? The reason I put those three question marks is I don't know what it means... So, what do I need to tow something like that and my other question is if I went with something 10 feet shorter (a 25-6 footer), would I be able to downsize the tow vehicle enough to make a difference in initial cost and gas mileage or with a 26 would I pretty much need the same vehicle... The end game here is getting the wife to go with us to races, and this is the first camper she ever got in that she actually liked.. said she would def go camping with us if we were in that... We are looking at other campers today but for 1500, I don't think I am gonna' find anything like it.. So my questions are all about trucks. Remember, this one is a fifth wheel, so what do I need? What are my options.. Thanks. |
