Yeah, I have heard of some horror stories with TT's and 5vers. I'm a fairly handy guy so I wasn't going to let the small things scare me off, and I took out some extended warranty for the others. If I end up fixing something, it will be done right and better than before, and if I can make it...

100% it would be. But there are a lot of people out there that might only look at max tow capacity as their limiter, and not think about tongue weights, and payloads. Good luck with your shopping experience. The market right now is crazy hot for TT and 5ths. We were down at the dealer on...
