If you have a 1 ton that has a payload of #4000 and can tow a #16k trailer and is a SRW, then go for it, if you have a 1 ton DRW that has the same specs, then that's your call. Just be legal and safe not matter what one decides to haul with

There really is no debate.. If any of the weights are in excess of the tow vehicles rating with a srw, a Drw is required.
Personaly, if one is looking at a new 5th wheel, the best solution is to weigh before the purchase.. I have made the srw mistake with our 15 ram megacab. We bought a 17 3500. Aisin, auto level, 4:10.. .safe travels..
