Anyone tow a 40 ft 5th wheel with a 2019 ram 3500 4x4 crew cab short bed? 6.7l Laramie. Looking at up grading. Pros vs cons.

I towed our 40' 5th wheel toy hauler with a 2017 Ram 3500 Crew short box before it totaled. Truck towed and handled great.

I don't have the HO 6.7l. But am looking at the

7k rear axle?

Looking at getting the Grand Design Solitude, no 6.7l HO here

No issues towing my 40ft. this pic is with a BW slider hitch. Never had to use the slider function. I currently have a Gen-Y Gooseneck hitch using a 4" offset ball. Both work(ed) flawlessly.

This is VERY dependent on the trailer design!

The front cap design will play a BIG part in this. I had a Keystone Cougar, worked great with a short bed / fixed hitch.
Went to a Solitude, wide body trailer, and while it "works", I had an issue with a campground we often visit and needed to get an autoslider to provide the additional room needed.
Tight turn into the place with a downward slope. Bad combination.

I might've looked at going to a B&W turnover set-up with the 4" offset ball. Update the trailer to a Reese Goosebox and all might be good!

Towing a 5ver is a better experience, IMO than a TT. I'd never go back to a TT.
