Default Install a gooseneck(5th wheel) trailer to h1

I wanted to know if anyone has installed a goosenek trailer to there h1 pick up not wagon. I wanted to buy a 98 and up h1 but I wanted to know if anyone has tried or know of this. I didnt want to buy a 3500 or 2500 pick up truck I want this truck to do the work would the suspension be able to hold? I know the torque can pull a trailer that has a total weight of 20000 pounds. Any suggestions? thanks

Probably not the best choice of vehicle for long road trips in my opinion!

20k lbs is WAY TOO MUCH weight for a 1998-2003 (6.5l turbodiesel)H1 to tow on the road at any reasonable speed; while the suspension and frame could likely handle the load of a heavy trailer, you will find the truck is severely underpowered for loadsgreater than10k lbs.
