Hello, and thanks for any advice you can give me.
I am considering a few different toy haulers that I will tow with a new 2009 Ford F150 crew cab short bed. My max towing capacity with the 5.4 ltr. engine with is #9200. My trips will be mainly me and my wife, 2 dogs, and 2 motorcycles that weigh approx. #1100, and the typical food and gear.
One of the trailer's I like is the Work and Play 28DB with a dry weight of #7521. See link to floorplan and specs below if you like.

I am new to RV'ing and towing, so I don't want to overload my new truck, and more importantly be unsafe. I am thinking this trailer may be maxing out my truck or worse, so I'm looking to some people who know more for advice.
Thanks,
Scott
