Greetings,

Great site hope someone with more knowledge about these old trucks can help me out.

I recently purchased a large / heavy 5th wheel travel trailer and now am in the market to by a truck to move it around. I found a 1993 W350 Ext Cab manual trans with low mileage.
I like the idea that the truck will outlast my new 5th wheel and most likely myself, but not sure if it would be a good choice for my needs.

The 5th wheel GVWR is 17000 lbs and the Unloaded Vehicle Weight is 12,300 lbs.
Would this old truck be a good fit for this work?

Thanks in advance for any and all advice I am new to all of this 5th wheels and diesels.
