I thought the rule on here was the opposite-really big campers pulled by the smallest truck possible.

I don`t have a pic, but my brother bought a really small PuP and didn`t have a hitch yet on his van. I went with him to pick it up with my X. I couldn`t even tell it was back there...literally!!! completely impossible to back it up. we just dsiconnected it from the X and rolled it up the driveway.

On the otherhand, over the July 4th weekend I seen a 35 foot gas class A going the opposite way towing an extended length E250/350!!!! this was an early 90`s class A! I felt very sorry for that poor bigblock, the temps were in the upper 90`s.

My current set up: Dodge 2500 HD pulling an 801 Dutchmen Duck.

Hey, don't want to over tax the engine.

(And the truck is so stiff, you can't feel the trailer.)

I once saw a Mazda B2200 pulling a fifth wheel camper. It wasn't a huge fifth wheel, but still way too big for that small truck. Of course I didn't have a camera at the time to prove it to everybody now, but I saw it and I was just shaking my head as he went by me in the campground

I don't have any pics but I saw a crew cab freightliner with a small car up on the back of the truck towing a 24'tag camper.

Looks like that TT is fish-tailing a little bit

The BEST I saw was just yesterday.
A MH towing a lightweight, teenie tiny Smart Car on top of a 6,000 lb car hauler.

We had a restored 1972 Ford dually flatbed utility body towing an 18ft (tongue to bumper) Sunline. The trailer was a single axle. It looked ridiculous, but it was what we had. But you feel like a idiot driving down the highway.
