I am looking for info on lightweight 5th wheels that could be towed by a well equipped 1/2 ton truck, specifically a 1500 Hemi Ram (my 3500 cummins was totalled last week).
So far on my short list are the smallest of the Forest River's Rockwood and Surveyor and K-Z's Spree. Any others out there?
As for the weight police, this isn't my first time around the block (check sig).
Thanks.

I think Skyline makes a 24 or 25 lightweight under the name of Nomad, Layton or Aljo.

ANY of the Rockwood 5th wheels are easily within the specs of my half ton and can't imagine that Dodge doesn't ALSO have a model that would handle them. Good luck / Skip
