Thank you Skypilot.

Nice to meet you.

My wife and I are retired. We went full time last year in our tow behind. We have been looking at a 5er for the whole year.

Monday we went to a show in town and seen this Big Sky we like so we put a down payment on it and we now are waiting for them to prep it.

I don't know much about hitches they said that they will put a Reese hitch on my truck. I think that is a good hitch,

We are getting a 340LQ, Do you think a 16 k hitch will be good or do you think we should get a bigger one?

thanks

Bill




Welcome, I tow the 3400RL Montana GVWR 15500, I felt better with the the Reese 18k hitch. I would think your Big Sky will be at least 15-16K GVWR if not more. I am not sure without looking on Montana's web site. I think a 18K hitch would be the better choice. It gives you more of a safety margin.
