Hey everyone. I haven't got my Titan yet, but I will pretty soon. I have a question regarding towing. I have heard that Nissan suggests that you do not tow a 5th Wheel or Gooseneck. Has anyone heard this?

Secondly, is there a rule of thumb concerning towing? In other words, I am looking at the LE Crew CAb 4X2. With the big tow package, I believe it can tow 9500 lbs. The 5th Wheel weighs about 8,000 lbs. dry. I imagine I will add 1000 lbs more that I would be hauling. Is this ok? I think I heard somwhere that you should only tow about 80% of the trucks towing capability.

Thanks.
