        <title>Hauler Question</title>
        <description> I&amp;#039;m looking to get a different truck to pull my gooseneck trailer.  I&amp;#039;m currently using a pickup.  Is or has anyone used a med-duty truck, like a GM C4500,C5500, Ford F650, F750, International 4700 crew cab?  Has anyone ran into problems with these size trucks?  Opnions?  What kinda fuel mileage?
Thanks</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Don&#039;t see many hot shots around anymore.  The ones I have seen were just dually pickups.  The Med duty trucks they are talking about above are much safer when hauling.  Bigger than a pickup, but yet smaller than a semi.  To be considered an RV there are a list of items and you need so many on the list to be considered an RV.  Some guys have been really creative.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ No worries, just wanted to mention it to you.  If you find one in your price range it should work very well.  We used the one we bought with the living quarters to take a trip to FL pulling a 48&#039; trailer with two cars plus a bunch of other stuff and it worked great.  These trucks feel much more solid than a dually when pulling a big load even though the drivetrain is the same as any GM product (they do have heavier rear axles) with the Duramax.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ We have an 06 4500 GMC four door that we have used for the last two years and it has worked very well.  We liked it well enough that we bought another one with a small living quarters on it.  We do have the four door truck for sale if you might be interested.  It was on this sites for sale page.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ A semi with a sleeper is nice, but I could see myself using the med-duty truck with a crew cab more often.  It would mostly pull a flat bed gooseneck to the pulls or pull a stock trailer a couple times a year.  Don&#039;t have a grain trailer.  I might take it to work once every couple weeks to keep everything fresh.  I am at the point of trading my truck in for a new one or getting a larger truck.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I went through this last year- decided to quit using (abusing) my dually to haul around 30k of tractors and trailer. I bought a FL70 Freightliner with a 60" sleeper, air ride/air brake and a C series Cummins. They can be found cheap. This one had 190,000 on it, so should last forever for the 2-3000 miles a year that I will put on it. I sold the gooseneck and bought an older drop deck trailer with a beaver tail and ramps, so now I don&#039;t have to worry about safety or legality. The truck is tagged and insured as an RV for a total of $400/year. Worth every penny to me to keep the miles and abuse off my expensive dually.]]></description>
