MAKE IT YOURS
Build the flagship to the load.

SIGNATURE BUILD
The custom hauler bed and fifth-wheel hitch.
On the flagship, the hauler bed is built for the heaviest end of the range. A full-length aluminum bed sits low over the chassis for clean hitching to big fifth-wheel and gooseneck trailers, while an air-ride hitch absorbs the road so a heavy pin weight never punishes the cab. Paired with the air-ride chassis, the Allison automatic and a heavy-truck engine brake, the M2-112 carries and controls loads that sit well beyond what a one-ton pickup is built for.
INTERIOR OPTIONS
Semi-truck space, finished like a luxury car.
WHEEL OPTIONS
Commercial wheels, finished to match.
BUILD

WHO IT’S FOR
See how owners tow with a Laredo.
Marine Performance & Yacht
Long-distance interstate runs down to Florida or Havasu with a 40-foot, triple-axle boat trailer ask a different question of a truck.
Motorsport & Race Trailer
Enclosed gooseneck race trailers, multi-car stackers, and sprint car rigs demand more than what a factory bed can offer.
Equine & Livestock Industry
Laredo’s roots are in the horse industry, and that heritage shows. Built in the cutting horse capital of the world, Texas.
Luxury RV & 5th Wheel Towers
When your trailer is also your home, the journey should be just as luxurious as the destination.

The M2-112 is a commercial-grade Class 7/8 chassis, typically rated over 26,000 lbs GVWR, so licensing depends on the truck’s registered weight, your state, and whether you use it personally or commercially. Many owners operate under a non-commercial class licence; others hold a CDL. Confirm the requirement with your state’s DMV before you buy.
Less than you’d expect. The M2-112 is specced with an Allison automatic transmission and air-ride suspension, so it drives more like a very large pickup than a manual semi — with the bonus of heavy-truck braking and visibility when you’re towing at the top of the weight range.
The M2-112 is a commercial Freightliner chassis built for loads beyond pickup range — 30,000+ lbs — with air-ride, an Allison automatic and the presence of a semi. The Ford F-450 and RAM 3500 are one-ton pickups, ideal up to roughly 40,000 lbs gooseneck, easier to live with day-to-day, and generally drivable on a standard licence for personal use. The flagship is the answer when the trailer outgrows the pickup.
