It all depends, on pavement 2wd will do 90 of the time although if you like goin off road with your trailer it will help definitely to have the 4wheels turning. Most of the time i use 2wd I have a 15foot tandem car trailer. It is better to use the 2wd just so u can make the charp turns when you have to. It also isn't that great on the transferr case to drive on dry pavement. It whears them out in a hurry. So long story short you should just use your best judgment. If you need all wheels turning to get you going just do that but don't drive the whole trip in 4x4. Hope this helped you some.

Can a performace truck be the answer to your hauling needs?
A performance truck may be helpful in your hauling needs. If you are towing a large item, like a 5-wheel camper or large recreational trailer, it will do better on the road. If you are looking to tow a small boat with a trailer, a performance truck may not be necessary.

Do you need a CDL to drive a f-450 with a fifth wheel?
For the truck by itself or when attached to a trailer with a GVWR of less than 10,000 lbs., no... unless you're hauling a quantity of hazmat which requires placards to be displayed. When attached to a fifth wheel trailer (all of which have GVWRs in excess of 10,000 lbs.), then that depends on the use. For commercial purposes, the answer will unilaterally be yes. For other purposes, we'd need to know the specifics for your situation.
What is the difference between four wheel high and low?
Four wheel drive high is used for everyday purposes such as driving on a snow packed road or light off roading. Four wheel drive low is for special circumstances such as getting out of deep mud and snow or towing a trailer up a steep hill. Four wheel drive should never be used on bare, dry pavement. Use two wheel drive in this circumstance. You will completely ruin your transfer case by using four wheel drive on pavement.

How do you adjust the weight between each tractor trailer axle?
If you have a sliding fifth wheel, you can transfer weight from the drive axles to the steer axle by sliding it forward, or you can transfer weight from the steer axle to the drive axles by sliding it back. If you have sliding tandems on your trailer, you can transfer weight from the drive axles to the trailer axles by sliding the trailer axles forward, or you can transfer weight from the trailer axles to the drive axles by sliding the tandem axles back. If you don't have these options, you have to readjust your load.
