I know this has been addressed numerous times but I have to admit that everything regarding trailer weights and tow ratings has me thoroughly confused.
I want to upgrade from my travel trailer to a 5 wheel and I am confused about how much weight my truck can really handle.
I have a 2015 F250 Super Duty, 6.7 turbo diesel, SRW, 156 wheel base
I have gathered the following from the owner manual and from the certification tag on the door jamb;
GCWR - 23500
GVWR - 10000
Max tow weight - 15100
GAWR Front 5200 Rear 6100
Tires - 275/65R20 E rated
I think that I can handle in the ball park of 13500 pounds but I am not sure of my calculation and I do not trust the sales people at the RV centers.
Experienced and expert help requested please.
