Know absolutely nothing about RVing so we were very excited to find this site. We have narrowed down to a 5th wheel, but that's as far as we've made it. We have a 2019 Denali truck with towing package including exhaust brake. I've only scratched the surface of this site and trying to learn to navigate it. We are presently looking at a HR Presidential 375 skq. don't even know what those numbers stand for. Hello to all

Hi ! Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

Don't jump at the first deal you find. There are lots out there to choose from!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

What Denali do you have. GM markets them in all flavors.
That HR is pretty heavy and there is no way I would want to tow it with a 2500 series.

New 'Moderators' spew not withstanding..........

WELCOME!
Many Folks with good infomation are members.

Please provide more details for more specific responses.
Which model do you have?
Do you know what any of the weights are.....Gross Vehcile Weight Rating (GVWR), Axle Ratings (FAWR/RAWR) etc.?
Should be listed on Data Sticker on door/door jamb

2009 was last year of the HR Presidentail 37 SKQ
GVWR of 16950#
DRY Pin Weight of 2500# based on DRY weight of 13,315#'
So WET Pin Weight (5th Wheel loaded up 'camp ready') will be closer to 3400#------WAY more then your Denali can carry on its Rear Axle.

So post up your Info/Details in your Denali for better idea of which 5th wheel would be a better weight match.

Welcome to the forum.

You are joining a good group of folks here with good info to share.

I agree on two points above. DO NOT jump at the first deal. Look long and hard at your options.

Secondly look very carefully at your wt. DO NOT tow at the Max wt as you will be asking for a problem.

Good luck and enjoy the adventure!
