Hi all,

Brand new to MOC. Don't yet have a Montana; anticipating a purchase 'round year's end; likely a 3455SA.

Per Keystone's info, this rig's dry weight is 12,000+ pounds (the heaviest of them). I would tow this with a 2008 F-250 with 6.4L diesel. According to Ford's "official" documentation, this truck can handle 15,200#. Aside from what it'll "take" without threatening to break something, is this enough truck for this rig?

I see in some of the posts that other folks also have 250s; don't know if the weight difference is really significant.

Any thoughts/opinions will be appreciated.

Thanks,
