Hi Folks, I am Robin Winslow and my wife's name is Brenda. We are from East Harwich, Cape Cod, MA. Like many of the members here, we are easing into retirement and planning to head south for as many winter months as possible. We have not purchased an RV (Residential Vehicle

) yet, but we have done extensive research and are leaning toward the Montana 3295. We will be poking around the forum, hoping to learn as much as possible, and will try not to ask too many questions that haven't previously been answered elsewhere on the forum.

I do have one question for the moment: I absolutely do not want to get a dual rear wheel pickup to haul the 3295. Would a new F-350 supercab, shortbed, SRW, diesel, 4 x 4 be adequate for hauling this unit when loaded with most of the bells & whistles? Ford rates the 5th wheel towing capacity of that model at 15,500. Thanks in advance for your responses.
