before i bought the 05 i was looking seriously at the isuzu NPR comes in
crew cab and the local dealer said i could get one with the body i wanted
installed for around 35K i think. i wanted the truck body like what the
"western hauler" conversions have.

a neighbor down the road has a freightliner crew cab kinda like what i was
looking at in the isuzu that he uses as a daily driver. nice rig.

In all seriousness, an FL50 would make a nice hauler for that 5th wheel.
The only problem is, that's ALL it's good for - whereas the pickup can serve
double/triple-duty as a hauler, a work truck, and a people mover.

Nate:

US Gear makes auxilliary transmisions that might be helpful.  There are
popular amongst RV'ers that tow heavy.  I don't know the URL but a Google
search should reveal their website.  They might have a solution to your
problems.

the time, and a torque splitter when towing heavy.
