Looks ok and within specs. Have you found anyone selling the 5th wheel adapter that works for the Gladiator?

Hell, you could by an "already on the market" 5th wheel and bolt it to the truck, no? just make sure you hit the hard points when you bolt it down

that price though. you could get something a lot less expensive. Do you need that size? Could you go with 3 feathers manufacturing and get one like that instead?

those scamps are great. Really good resale value and they are pretty durable. however, they come at a premium. The really small ones are are like 20k with options.

Cheaper than an Airstream, and ‘almost’ as durable-
