will a duramax 2500hd handle a montana 3750 dont want any bigger truck
I just researched the heck out of this. We bought a 3750FL and because of the weights involved, you really need a one ton, preferably a dually in my opinion. You cannot go by the brochure weights here. My F-350 DRW has a payload of 3,720 pounds as per the camper certification - not the 5,990 pounds as per the brochure. The estimated pin weight on the Montana is about 3,100 pounds which only leaves 620 pounds for fuel, hitch, etc. in the bed. My opinion and research say a one ton DRW for the 40' Montana's.
