I used a 2001 Ford F-350 crew cab dually, for my 1999 35ft that was a little overkill but I was planing ahead for the 42ft that I have now....LOL.....BZ

I tow with a 2003 Dodge cummings turbo 5.9 4-door 4 wheel and love it.

I used a Chevy 2500 HD 4X4 to pull my last 35 but the best thing I can use for now is 2005 Escalade.

2006 Ford F-250 Diesel, works great.
Even put the 20's on it, minor bling. :drink:

Good luck with the purchase.

I tried to use my 04 1500 4x4 Suburban but it was sketchy even after installing weight distribution and electric over hydraulic brakes on the aluminum trailer. I ended up buying an 02 F-350 diesel crewcab 4x4 on ebay and it tows like a champ.

Indy, I have a 06' Escalade that pulls my 29' Fever. Want to upgrade to a 35' Lighting. Published dry weight is 8,700 lbs. Add a trailer and liquids, and we are over 10,000 lbs. I trailer every weekend, up to 300 miles. How does your Esclade feel with this much weight?
