I need a toter but cant afford a real one. Therefore I am considering placing a small fifth wheel on a cab chassis truck. The FW is easy I need help with the truck. They all seem to be underpowered. I could really use some input on the truck to buy Thanks

What size fifth wheel are you going to get or you have? That would be a factor in what truck to recommend. With a small fifth you could do a 5500 chevy Kodiak, something bigger you could jump into the m2 class or up to the Volvo tractor arena.

So what size FW? What type of travel? mountain etc.. would be help ful

I am going to keep it small. I saw a 24' with a slide that looked about the right size. I will be towing a 4 mule gooseneck trailer loaded.

my concern is all the horsepower seems to be around 200 or less.
