The main thing to watch when hooking a 5er & 3/4 ton is the pin weight of the trailer. The manufacturer's figure does not include any water in the tanks, propane or personal stuff onboard. These things will add several hundred pounds to the published pin weight. It is the GVWR of a 3/4 ton that usually is the first thing to be exceeded pulling a 5er. You should be ok on GCWR, Tow rating, etc. There are a bunch on this site pulling 30' plus units with the F250 without issues. Some of those folks will surely chime in shortly.
