How's the ride on a 04 2500 QC 4WD longbed with fiver

I'm might be getting a 04 Ram 2500 QC 4WD longbed with the HO and like to hear from others that have this truck and pull a fifth wheel. Pin weight is about 1550 pounds and camper weighs about 8500 pounds wet.

Does this truck squat much when hitched?

How is the ride when hitched?

I know the 3500 SRW is available but I havent seen many with the options I want and dont want to order cause I'm ready to buy in the next 2 weeks. Only pull the camper aobut 15 times a year if that.

Thanks for any info!

Word of advice, the payload weight with the HO 6 shooter is 1880lbs, with the auto it's 2100lbs. You may want to keep that in mind. Personnally I would get the 3500 either Shortbed or Longbed to ensure you don't overload it.
Just my .01 worth ;D
