jaybird...you have asked the wrong question. Any diesel pick up will "pull" any 5th wheel on the market, even the 20k+ Teton. However, if you want to stay within specs, do the numbers. By that I mean check the amount of weight in your truck...pin weight, weight of the hitch, cargo, passengers, tools, etc. The key number is the truck's GVWR...I think you will find you are most likely over the manufacturer's rating with the 2955.

As for 15-18 MPG towing...I think you must be a Dodge salesman! Actually, I get that kind of mileage all the time...down hill with a tailwind and the engine off.
