An F250 CCLB, 4x4 diesel will weigh in at just about 8300 pounds. Mine is 8360 by CAT scale. Add a hitch, mom, kids and dog .....
If your truck has the 5er and camper options, it is more then capable in every way to haul that 5er. Unfortunately, that 'B' pillar sticker will only go to 10,000 pounds, max and as I said way back, to satisfy insurance companies and state DOTs
Now I need more popcorn and another 6 pack of my favorite bev!!!

Dave thanks for those numbers. I don’t pull with water in the tanks but, with what I carry for work and what not your numbers are probably pretty close and might be a bit shy. I think people should know that what I am doing to the tv in no way makes it legal unless done by a dealer and factory certified. ( a new sticker put in the truck). It will however put less stress on the suspension components and more importantly make for a safer tow.
