Long time lurker, first time poster here, so please don't tear me up too bad.
I am a year or so away (finishing my Bachelors after raising 4 boys...) from buying a 5 ton. While some folks here have made some amazing RV's out of the Duece, I'm wondering is it is possible/practical to mount a RV trailer or 5th wheel type RV on a 5 ton. It has the carrying capacity and other features that would make for a awesome go anywhere rig. It seems like a lot of work to build a box van into a RV that could be avoided if I could mount a trailer or 5th wheel on the back of a LWB 5 ton. Is this a practical dream, or just not feasible due to height, too top heavy, or other restrictions? Having a toilet, kitchen, and sleeping area will go a long ways towards convincing my Lovely Bride of 22 years that this is something that we should do before we retire. I have looked, but have not found where anyone has done this. I have a 45 Willys that will be towed behind for a run about rig. Any suggestions or outright "you've got to be kiddings" will be appreciated. Thanks for the great forum. Hootch
