I looked today and the Monaco has a 10,000 pound hitch.
My ram dually full of fuel and with 60 gallons in the aux tank I added has to be crowding 9000 pounds. I don't like to push things.
It's kind of funny that my wife also brought up towing the dually as a toad. She said It might not be handy but you'd have 60 gallons of diesel you could pump out if we couldn't find fuel. Makes sense.
Wife works at Cracker Barrel, today is her last day since we're leaving for Florida for 6 months. A few years ago a motorhome pulling a truck with a golf cart in the bed overturned at the entrance to that Cracker Barrel. Made a huge mess. I can only guess they took the ramp too fast.
