I agree that you will need a dully and W/ 8’ bed. When we received ours I didn't have a hitch yet so we had the dealer deliver it. They delivered it with a GMC 2500 diesel W/short bed and slider hitch. From my observations I would not want to tow with that set up all the time and the slider would be a pain. It made me nervous watching them place it in my driveway, as my house is on top of a hill and the drive way is very narrow. Some of the things we like about our 381 are the 6 point leveling system, the lighted awnings, 12 CF frig, and the garage. This is our first Toy Hauler and we love it. One thing I would change if I was going to use it when it was cold out is the windows. They have an option for double pain windows. We used it one night when it got down in the low 40s high 30s with the wind blowing and you could really feel a lot of cold air coming in around the shades. Hope this helps and good luck
