This thread has gotten me thinking a bit. I'm hauling a 3731FL with a 2017 F350 SWR with no apparent issues. Rides smooth and goes up and down hills with ease, lane changes and rough Interstates are not a hassle. I've done over 10K miles with this set up. Having said that, and going back to the door post sticker had me doing some math. I carry very little in the front hatch and basement and load most items under the bed in the rear along with keeping at least half full fresh water tank to keep pin weight to a minimum. I just checked my trade in value and no way I can afford to move to a DRW. I believe I may be close on payload so my next step will be to hit the scales so I have real numbers and then maybe go for air bags and an air ride pin box to soften some of the bouncing on these nasty Interstates. If the scales say I'm overweight that may require more drastic action.
