If you quit now you will truly be a DOUCHE.... Now relax, use your imagination instead of swear words, and have some fun my brother. :drink: :drink: |

Re: What do you tow your 35+ ft. boat with?
If you have a GM truck look at this PDF file from GM Upfitters. This is a guide for companies that buy just cab and chassis for fitting truck bodies and custom work. This is the real towing capacity of GM trucks. You can find you chassis number on the drivers door.
I'm sure Ford and Dodge have the same type of document http://www.gmupfitter.com/publicat/2...lering_New.pdf |

Back to a towing question. All the manufactures will always rate a truck with a higher tow rating if it's a fifth wheel or goose neck, whys that? I know the attachment is probably at a stronger part of the truck, but a 4000/5000# difference?

Re: What do you tow your 35+ ft. boat with?
Good answer, I'll buy that. What about most boat setups though, tongue weight usually isn't that heavy compared to the actual overall weight(10% seems to be the standard, but boats seem to be closer to 5%). If you were buying a truck rated at 12000 reg, and 16000 w/fifth wheel, would you feel comfortable pulling a 16000# boat with that truck? And believe me I am not referring to my truck..

Re: What do you tow your 35+ ft. boat with?
i have pulled both fifth wheel and conv tow at 12k plus (not boats but other trailers), give me fifth wheel everytime... there is a reason why semi's are fifth wheels..
