I have a Fuzion 395 with a pin weight of 3,200 pounds and pull it with our 09' Ram 2500 with a set of Firestone air bags as well. We live in the southeast and our trips are mostly within 4 hours of home base. If we were to travel out west then we would upgrade to a DRW truck just to easy my mind. However with our current setup there is no wagging or anything, rock solid down the road. I know that we are at the limits of our current TV and with that in mind I take it easy, always leave room ahead of us and keep an eye on the idiots around me. The biggest help with our current setup is the factory engine brake, it takes over on decel and except for an emergency stop condition I hardly have to apply much brake. The tires I am running are Michelin LTX A/T2. I have the size on the truck of LT265/70R17/E 121 R. I check my tires everytime and have them inflated to the proper specs. These have a load rating of 3195@80 psi. The key to anything is safety, and even though we are pushing the limits, we are within MY comfort zone.
