Welp I've decided to buy an RV, move down to the Gulf coast only problem is that I really don't know a whole lot about them.
I went & looked at some yesterday at a local dealership, I found a regular hitched type travel trailer that I really liked, I believe it was called a Sandpiper, anyway it was huge, almost as big as some of the goose-neck trailers, I really liked it, I could definitely live very comfortably in it, but my truck is a 95 Chevy Silverado 1500 so it's only rated for 7500lbs & the Sandpiper weighs over 9000 I think.
Do I need to buy a new truck? or is there a way I can make this happen with my current 1500? (5.7ltr)
I am guessing that my 1500 wouldn't be able to pull one of those big goose neck trailers without burning out the engine/transmission on the 1300 mile trip down there, so I haven't really gave them much thought.
But if I need to buy another truck anyway, I could step up to a goose neck I guess.
