So, Im looking for thoughts from folks who exceed GVWR, but still stay within RGAWR to comment. Does this setup appear doeable given those assumptions above, and the assumption that exceeding GVWR by up to 800lbs (that would be the high side estimate, because I know they won't load the trailer with 2400lbs of goodies).
Let me answer you with this.
99.9 percent of LDT out towing/hauling for a living on the roads are doing so well over the truck makers GVWR/GCWR/payload sticker number....and we do so for hundred of thousands of miles especially the newer diesel powered LDTs today.
The weight cops make all kinds of claims about doom and gloom when a rv guy is over a GVWR/GCWR/payload sticker number .....but think nothing of traveling the same road with SRW/DRW running in the 30k-40k GCWR and carrying max axle/tire loads.
As others say the F250 is just a F350 with a lower rear tire/wheel package. If the F250 came with the heavy service package its the same exact package as the F350 SRW.
Just stay under axle/tire load limits and all is safe.....just like those folks that are hauling and towing "legally" for a living.
