Smallest toy hauler that would still fit a Funco Gen4.

And talking to a couple of different guys that used to work for us and did all of our diesel work. After getting all the info from them I'm going to stay away from a Chevy and buy a Dodge. Stick with the 6.7. just have to be careful of the aluminum injector pump on the 2019 and 2020 trucks. Probably go with a 3500 single rear wheel. Would like to find the exact weight ratings on the ww le3505. I am assuming I will be fine to hook that up to a srw late model Dodge truck 3500.
 
So I found some info on the weekend warrior le3505. So let's say I load this thing to the gills at 16,000 lb gross weight. Who knows what the pin weight would be. Could I get away with a newer Dodge or Ford diesel 3500 single rear wheel or would I be better to go to a dual rear wheel. Everything I'm reading seems like that is right at about the breaking point. I've read a lot of guys towing with single but a lot of them say they've done dual and it tows so much better and is safer. One of our guys that used to work for us I was talking to him tonight and he said the newer Ford trucks especially 2018 and 2019 are really good. They are a little priceier but yet I would have a higher budget buying an older weekend warrior.

Buy the Ford dually and don't look back. It's the best truck on the market. The WW 3505 is a great trailer but heavy as shit. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
 
Getting closer to figuring this out. Found my trailer. WW CR3905. 4 feet longer than the LE3505 and 1350 lbs heavier. This link from JD power says this trailer is 11,600 lbs dry. I can't seem to find anywhere the carrying capacity and hope it is 6000 lbs like the LE3505. What a neat trailer. optional up to 2 slides. They are small though. One for the couch and one for the bedroom closet area. But I think would make all the difference in the world. 16' to the slide so perfect for the Funco with 1'3" to spare. Going in the morning to drive a new 3500 Chevy Duramax dually. I like it has a 100,000 mile powertrain warranty on it. LT more of a base model is 74k plus tax and fees. I see several nice cr3905s with 2 slides for $25-32k. This would keep me under my $125k budget. Only thing I am wondering is if I could buy another diesel pusher with a light aluminum enclosed box trailer for my wifes little Audi TT with that same budget. I am guessing an all aluminum box trailer 20' would be 25k. That leaves 100k for a used pusher. If we were traveling and stopping at campsites it seems like it would be a PITA with a trailer and pulling a car in and out. Just need to think about this a little more and research.

Just talked with my wife and a moho and trailer will not be an option. We have some really cool electric off road bikes and need to be able to throw them in the truck and go explore. Bought her a Bakcou mule 2025 series. It is the number one electric bike sold to hunters the last two years running. I bought a Pedego electric elevate.
 
Pedego decided to get out of the mountain bikes and are currently having a closeout on the Elevate model. Great components and blowout pricing so good I could not say no.

I'm a diehard GM guy, but..

The company I work for builds industrial equipment on the F550. These trucks are amazing.

Not sure I'd drive a dodge truck if someone just gave it to me. Dash would probably fall off and break my knee cap...
