I have been talking to some truck guys around here and we are looking
at
a 1500 Silverado four door with a 5.3...

Very doubtful that would be rated anywhere near high enough for a 36'
fifth wheel. You are going to need a 2500 or F-250 series truck at a
minimum.

I agree with Rich. a 1500 is a 'heavy half' tone truck. and is light
for the load. I've never seen a 1500 set up for a 5th wheel, and the
5.3 will pull it but it'd have to work at it.


Yeah... I am brought back to another of my dads' words of wisdom... He
said, "a guy can offer you a brand new caddilac for 50 bucks but if you
don't need a caddilac, or don't have the 50 bucks, it's still not a good
deal"...

Might just wait to have something big enough to have mama come along...
