Congrats on the new truck - my 96 CTD Dodge 3/4 ton SRW has hauled everything I could fit on my gooseneck so far. When looking at trailers be sure to get brakes on both axles if a dual axle. Some trailers come with only trailing axle brakes. You didn't say if you went with training wheels on the new truck but they help tame the sway of larger loads better than the SRW. Make sure you get a good hitch setup specifically for the 03/04 Dodge - the rail systems are sturdy and I have heard good things about the B&W Turn-Over ball. Keep both your truck and trailer brakes adjusted and use a good trailer brake controller and you will still be able to go faster than you can "whoa". If you want to start an argument on any truck forum just get a discussion started on the Prodigy versus the Jordan controllers. Having used both I now have the Jordan in my 96. My old Dodge has a Voyager so I sit on both sides of the fence. For all the info you could possibly want on your truck (and a great group of CTD guys) try www.dieseltruckresource.com - tell Jack or Lary that redramnc sent you.
