Just joined from western Pennsylvania
We just bought our first Montana 5th wheel, a 2015 3791RD!
We will be hauling it with a 2015 Silverado 2500 HD LTZ Duramax / Allison combo.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!!

Any concerns with a 3/4 ton for this unit? I'm evaluating the need for a 1 ton, if you push the limits of the cargo capacity. I found the GVWR was 16,870.

I didn't have any problems pulling it through the mountains of PA with my 2015 Silverado 2500HD Duramax. We will be taking it on the maiden voyage to Myrtle Beach next week and I'll let you know how it all works out

I am towing a 3791RD with a 2013 GMC 3500 Duramax crew cab long bed. Picked it up from the dealer last weekend and headed to the scales. I'm within 100 lb of the 3500HD GVWR of 11,600. Loaded chairs etc in rear storage. O ly have a spare 20 lb propane tank in front basement and no wssher/dryer.
