Towing

[Wayne Kotila]

Stuart, I frequently pulled a skidloader and alot of equipment on a double axle trailer. The total trailer and load weighed in at about10,000 pounds and I had a 1985 Wanderlodge PT40. The coach handled it with ease and other than seeingthe trailerin the camera and in the mirrors I could not tell it was back there. I now have a 1996 Wanderlodge PT42 and plan on pulling a Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 quad cab with a short box and based on my previous heavy load towing experience with a Wanderlodge, I think it will be just fine.

Good Luck

Anyone towing a Dodge Ram 2500 quad cab 4x4 8' bed diesel PU or similar type vehicle 4 wheels down? Weighs in at 6000 lbs empty, has been set up to for towing using Roadmaster towbar rated at over 8ooo lbs. Was originally intended to be towed by 2004 Winnebago Journey 32' diesel pusher, a task Winnebago sales people gauranteed was capable of. Winnebago is too short, too light and Dodge too heavy, steering too stiff, result an unsafe combination. Are any 3-axel 40' Bluebird diesel pushers safely capable of such a task?
