The wait is over. Although I think the long bed looks corny. Nissan will have a tough time converting over to a "work" truck.

It has more bling bling so the long bed will be interesting.

At least someone might be able to hook up a 5th wheel. Does the new long beds have the right suspension setup for a 5th wheel?

I've not found anything that says if the long bed will support a 5th wheel trailer. What have you heard? Is your truck long bed? I will never again drive a long bed. They are a pain in the arse.

shouldn't you be looking toward a 3/4 ton or 1 ton truck if you have a 5th wheel?
Well that is what I'm wondering also. I think with the tow power the Titan might be able to handle pulling the weight. Is the long bed able to handle a 5th wheel? Your right -- the F250 is setup with the heavier duty springs and equipment. Could the Titan have a retrofit that would make it work for a small 5th wheel?

The weight issue is true. But I have heard that you not only need to be setup underneath -- you also need to have the right brake setup.

3/4 T and 1T pickups are made heavier, frames, larger axles, front/rear ends, springs, U-Joints, steering linkages and associated components
Which is why they can tow Toy Haulers and 5th wheels better?
