as art indicated, if your intended has a weight of 15+K.......look in the door jamb of your truck ( or literature if looking to buy) and see what the total package can be....in my case i have a 2000 f-250 srw crew cab and mine is a total wt. of 20000k (and the truck unloaded is listed at i believe almomst 9K....)so i would NOT want to tow that rig......be careful of dealers telling you 'oh you can pull anything in my lot'.....imho you can't tow much of a fiver with a 150/1500.certainly not a montana fiver. we have an 02 2955rl (one of the lighter models) and i'm barely in my comfort zone with it. i believe trailer life magazine puts out an annual tow vehicle supplement to their magazine??...good luck..and enjoy........gary
