I am very, very satisfied with our 3500 diesel. Mind you I'm coming from a 2500 with a 5.7l gas engine. The dry weight of our 5th wheel is slightly under 10K. My wife packs it to the hilt so we are probably pulling 12K to 13K. The trailer was probably a little bit over the capacity of the...

The order for my 3500 Laramie was placed on January 17. The build is scheduled for completion on March 1 with expected delivery to be around the middle of March. So - 9 weeks from order to pickup.
