truck and trailer setup for towing a deuce

[einstein]

I want to see some truck and trailer pics of towing your deuce. Will a 2500 or 3500 truck pull em with a 3rd wheel?

I have towed quite a bit heavier than a Deuce. A tank and a 5 ton. I use an F450 with a custom made trailer.

It's 5th wheel BTW.

Unless your name is Doghead, then its 3rd wheel!

Hmm, in my neck of the woods it has always been called a 5th wheel hitch.

Yup, and for heavier useage they are typically a gooseneck with a 2 5/16 ball and socket. Mine is rated for 30,000 trailer and load, 7500 tongue weight on the ball.
