    Anyone in here do it ? Ours weighs 8500 dry. Considering a 2020 1794, I understand about pin weights etc, looks like I'd need airbags, maybe a rear sway bar. Other than that it pencils out good.

    From my quick search, the max payload for the most capable 2020 Tundra is 1,730lbs. 5th wheel trailer pin weights are usually around 20% of their dry weight. Your pin weight is approximately 1,700lbs. Remember, anything you add to the trailer's dry weight, 20% of that weight transfers to the truck plus passengers and cargo in the truck.
