Although I have read that the Tundra has limitations with towing a 5ver, I have never heard that Toyota doesn't recommend towing a fifth wheel at all. I assumed that as long as you stay within the hitch and towing weight constraints of the truck that there would be no problems. I know (from a little internet reading) that a lot of people are pulling 5vers, most with no problems. In fact it seems that the truck does fine in cases where the trucks boundries are adhered to. But, it does seem that the best trailer for the tundra over a broader range of options (larger trailers, etc.) is the conventional travel trailer. Where did you get your information? Was it from an official Toyota site, or with talking to someone?
