If a 5th wheel is in your future you would be wise to look at 350/3500 pickups. Any 250/2500 is going t be marginal for most 5th wheels on the market today. I have a 2022 3500 Duramax SWB, 4WD, Crew Cab that has a useful load rating of 3927. Most late model 250/2500's are going to be 3000 to 3300. I have ridden in a 2500 that is equipped like my 3500, and unloaded I can't tell any difference in ride.
 
Great information Rosy, never had to tow since in a Class C. Always liked/wished I had the Chevy 3500 HD Diesel for towing or truck camping. It was recommended to go 70% of truck capabilities, towing and payload. Maybe next life.
