That trailers dry weight is 12,855 lbs. Its GVWR is 16840 lbs. Fords tow/weight capacity ratings are confusing at best. from what I can decipher, your truck has a payload capacity of 2866-3000 lbs. The advertised pin weight of the trailer is 2840 lbs and could be more. You would have virtually no weight rating left for passengers/fuel/cargo in the truck.

That camper is 1280 lbs heavier that my 2011 3455sa witch I stated out towing with a 2011 Chevy 3500 SWR long bed CC . I did not like the feel of the camper pushing the truck around on mountainous roads. I now pull it with a 2014 GMC dually. The difference is night and day.

I think you are defiantly in Dually territory with that heavy trailer.
