Special Thanks to Fitzgerald Auto Mall in Frederick, MD for allowing me to do this test!

I have a 2021 GMC Sierra 3500 HD Denali short bed with a retrax bed cover pulling a 41ft 2022 Keystone Avalanche with a 20k Reese Goosebox and have no problems with a 90 degree turn. Make sure your airbag in the Goosebox is set at the proper level and clearance over the bed cover rails isn’t an issue. The probability of needing a 90 degree turn is very low, but. Ice to know I can do it.
are using the gen 2 or 3 goosebox? I have the exact same setup but a 2500. It looks like the trailer frame is about to hit the retrax not the actual pinbox. Thanks for sharing it's helping me make a decision between the gen-y or Reese goosebox. My frame on the trailer is identical to yours.
@@SuperLizbug I have a Gen 2 goosebox. Good luck in your decision, I think you will be happy either way. It’s so nice not to have the hitch in the back of the truck.
Thanks for the reply I ended up going with the gen-y hitch I live in Arizona and want something without an airbag due to the heat. hope I dont regret not gong with the Reese.
Thanks. It seems like every question I can think of, is addressed in your videos. You seem to have a video for every issue that arises. You da man!
I bought a soft tonneau cover, but I might switch it to a hydraulic lid type cover when we purchase our RV. We're getting a 33' travel trailer. I just bought a Silverado 3500HD. Brand new with a long bed.
Thanks for sharing- and great seeing HANNA again 👍
I'm liking more and more that I just pick up a night edition 2022 3500 ram CCLB now I don't have to worry about hitting the cab, awesome video JB.
Good vid. Nice pick-up! Beautiful partner!!
Thanks and I agree 😃
the best part about htis new design is the bed on a GM is the short bed on an HD is almost 7 feet long now. as much as many people will tow a similar unit with a 2500, the 3500 gives so much more versatility on payload -
Another good video. We went truck shopping yesterday planning to replace the 2010 mega cab and to my surprise the wife liked the GMC...until she saw the 2022 Ram. Putting the order in next week for a CCLB Big Horn Night Edition
Thanks and that is some exciting stuff!!! You going dually?
Wifey loved the exterior but that interior can’t compete with RAM
@@JB_WhoWork no dually. Not a fan of them and my trailer maxes out at 15k so they payload will be plenty on the SRW. I really looked at the big 3 and don't think any of them make a bad truck, but the looks and feel on the Ram are better. I know it's not the fastest truck, but that's not what you get a 1 ton for.
Good job, you definitely got the right truck. The longbed 1 ton gives you a higher GVWR so you will have over 4K in payload 👍🏾
That's is what I have, is a 2022 3500 night edition CCLB ram I love it, I just haven't tow my 5th wheel yet which is no problem, it's about 13,000lbs.
@@bishopgeorge1333 did you go big horn or Laramie? That's the only thing I'm torn on.
Also depends on the hitch, I have a 2021 GMC 3500HD AT4 SB with an Andersen Hitch and 2022 Momentum TH no issues with clearance
We just bought a AT4 HD. Can’t wait to tow. Nice video again bro.
Thanks 👍🏾
Congrats btw, love the AT4 👍🏾
Truck looks good dough. I'm a new subscriber.
Thanks for subbing DJ! Really appreciate it 👍🏾
👍information. It’s always best not to get yourself in a tight spot if all possible. Been there done that before, I was working for a company making local deliveries, in an area that I wasn’t familiar with, I had to back a tandem axle tractor with a 53’ trailer one eight mile to keep from making a convertible out of the trailer, trailer was 13’6”, bridge was 11’. P.S. there was a curve in the road
😰😰😰. You are a boss 💪🏾💪🏾
Love this channel! Happy new year JB and family!
Thank you 👍🏾🇺🇸
Nice truck, personally I can't get passed the running lights on the fender. I enjoy your videos and reviews thanks for sharing 👍.
Thanks for the comment 👍🏾
chevy does not have that light
Replaced mine with tinted lens. I also didn’t like the yellow lens
You may as well go find you a GMC or in my opinion a Z71 Sport Chevy. And normally I don’t advocate for black vehicles but the black truck really goes good with your camper.
Haha! I wouldn’t mind a GM once I see a refresh interior but really do like the truck apart from that. Black trucks really complete my rig 🥵
@@JB_WhoWork black trucks are the best looking but way too hard to clean. And the new GMs are HUGE. So it’s a big no for me lol. It does look really good though in front of your outfit.
Lol I agree
Great demonstration By team Brown! But how’s that GMC look so much better than it’s Chevy cousin🤷♂️💪🇺🇸
Thanks brother! Mannnn i think Chevy and GMC did rock/paper/scissors and Chevy lost lol 👍🏾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@JB_WhoWork 😂
This is a perfect example of why you should own a travel trailer. 😂. J/K. Thanks for the video JB.
Lol! Why you say that? Thanks bro 👍🏾
Looks like you need a air lift in back Thanks for video ✌️🇨🇦 That’s a big trailer ✌️
It did look like it was sagging a little bit, thanks 👍🏾🇺🇸🇨🇦
I would be curious to see your GVRW math, LOL, you've got a 40', wow, nice backing skills, I could have done that but would have taken me a few trys.
I have a 2014 2500HD I know its older, but I just wanted to say the diff between a 2500 and 3500 ain't much, this is older info but for what it's worth the trucks are identical as far a frame running gear, engine, brakes and more, the difference is wheels / tires and more rear spring so I'm like you JB, probably cheating some on the max gvwr with my trailer, but GM builds their 2500 very good.
I've pulled our 14k trailer up and down the w coast several times, I get a little tense up around weed calif but these trucks are awesome. Be safe out there.
Great video!
👍🏾🇺🇸
Thank you for this video
Goosebox gotcha, standard hitch wouldn’t hit because it sits higher. Also, good point on the chains. Alot of people don’t know that chains ARE required on a ball, but not on a kingpin.
Good point, fifth wheel hitch is better for that very reason 👍🏾
The side rail is not the problem it is the Reese hitch push’s the trailer back to far and is more than half the width of the truck bed, and is to low. You need to go back to a fifth wheel hitch for a short bed truck. They are safer and don’t require safety chains.
This is good to hear. I’m about to pull the trigger on the RetraxPro XR and I’m worried about the rails contacting the trailer hitch. Sounds like it’s a combination of what hitch you choose and the trailer. I’m thinking about running the Anderson.
you’re gonna want a GMC 3500 long bed Duty Denali, high input, Duramax diesel
JB let me first thank you for all the videos you have put up for Ram trucks and RV's. What was the turning degree on the GMC till you hit. you think? currently I own a 2003 ram 2500 with a bumper pull TT. I am looking to upgrade with a Rambox truck and go to a 5th wheel RV with gooseneck setup. Dodge will not build a 5th wheel pucks with a Rambox but I see others have the gooseneck setup like yours.
Jb she's supervising that what wife's do
Lol yup!
I know you love your 41 foot fifth wheel latch get the next 42 foot fifth wheel
let’s crank it hard left turn all the way
This is a 45 degree turn, and not 90. The relationship between the truck and fifth wheel is what makes the difference. You can drive a 360 degree turn as long as you don't turn too tight.
I think you should buy a 2024 GMC Denali Duramax diesel 4 x 4 the top limit model with the 350 standard I think you should buy a 2024 GMC Denali Duramax diesel 4 x 4 the top limit model with the 350 model
Can you tow a fifth wheel using your set up, but with a ridgid 48 tool box?
Not sure 🤔
I have a 3500 and a 45 foot fifth wheel and i can make 90 turns all day back or forward, with a fifth wheel hitch, can’t go over 90 degrees thou.
Do you have. SRW SB? I'm buying a 40' GN. Would a SRW LB provide and other advantages other than turning radius?
Go fifthwheel
Too much trailer get a dually
